Critics Review
A book about witches with no owls and not a pair of round spectacles in sight. The new Hunger Games, I suspect… Brilliant and utterly compelling - I loved it.

A brilliant debut that is both deeply unique and unsettling, one that chilled me to the bone and broke my heart even as I sped through its pages. This will haunt you. * Marie Lu, author of Legend *
Take our word for it, this book is going to be huge. * Stylist *
Brilliantly paced with more than a few nasty surprises, Half Bad is a wickedly addictive read that will capture the imagination of any fan of YA fiction. * Starburst *
Not since the Harry Potter books - yes, I said it! - have I felt so fully immersed in an author’s creation… I couldn’t be more stoked over Half Bad, and this launch novel of a trilogy truly deserves all the hype surrounding it - and much more… * Amanda Hurley, Inkwood Books *
