Critics Review
“A ghost story guaranteed to reel you in from the first page and then give you the shivers” – The Times Children’s Book of the Week
“A melancholic yet spine-tingling ghost story written with grace and poignancy. The message of togetherness within landscapes and throughout history is the most perfect one Marcus could have left for his readers.” – Keith Gray
“Every now and again a book comes along that knocks me sideways. This is one of those books” – Kate Poels, author
“Complex and atmospheric … Like all the best ghost stories, Ravencave is inextricably linked to place and people, with a raw emotional heart.” – CLPE
“The landscape is gorgeously rendered and the prose as eerie, luminous and clear as ever. Here teenagers will find hope, warmth and reconciliation.” – Literary Review
