Run away and join the night circus - magical performances, inexplicable marvels, rivalry and love.

What would be your act?

The circus arrives without warning. It is simply there, when yesterday it was not. Against the grey sky the towering tents are striped black and white. A sign hanging upon iron gates reads-

Critics Review

Lush, evocative, dreamlike …a magical, coming-of-age story

This is a marvellous book. Playful and intensely imaginative, Erin Morgenstern has created the circus I have always longed for – Audrey Niffenegger
The only response to this novel is simply: wow. It is a breathtaking feat of imagination, a flight of fancy that pulls you in and wraps you up in its spell * The Times *
Enchanting … I was compelled by the world itself - by its saturated colours and textures, its unexpected smells and tastes. It is - a surprisingly rare thing in fiction - a strikingly beautiful world, in spite of its darkness – Claire Messud * Guardian *
A riveting debut. The Night Circus pulls you into a world as dark as it is dazzling, fully-realized but still something out of a dream. You will not want to leave it – Téa Obreht, author of The Tiger’s Wife
Dark and dreamy; a captivating love story * Stylist *
Lushly imagined, extremely charming and very, very readable – Stuart Kelly * Scotland on Sunday *
One of the most beautiful novels of the year * Observer *
Deliciously inventive… Don’t imagine this is a light, frothy tale. For all her humorous touches, Morgernstern … has produced something darker than night – Mary Crockett * Scotsman *
Lush, evocative, dreamlike… a magical, coming-of-age story * Sunday Times *
Pure pleasure… Erin Morgenstern is a gifted, classic storyteller, a tale-teller, a spinner of the charmed and mesmerizing - I had many other things I was supposed to be doing, but the book kept drawing me back in and I tore through it. You can be certain this riveting debut will create a group of rêveurs all its own. * Aimee Bender, author of The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake *
