Critics Review
This complex, ambitious, magical novel is gripping and as the plot unfolds, it is unflinching … but beneath the darkness shines a life-affirming message of love and redemption
This complex, ambitious, magical novel is gripping and as the plot unfolds, it is unflinching … but beneath the darkness shines a life-affirming message of love and redemption * Daily Mail *
Lush and deliciously twisty … Fowley-Doyle is herself a literary spell caster, conjuring up a suspenseful and sensual ambience in the forest on the edges of town and in the remains of bonfire revelry … This smart and sexy page-turner that readers will want to devour and share with their friends is a real find * School Library Journal *
Fowley-Doyle’s lush, atmospheric storytelling contrasts brilliantly with her characters’ teenage normalcy * Kirkus *
Spellbook is reminiscent of a medieval tapestry in its colour, complexity, and stylistic texture … [it is] sure to please teens who enjoyed Fowley-Doyle’s debut novel, The Accident Season. * VOYA *
