"an awesome array of characters which definitely included the good, the bad and the ugly, and an amazing plot!" " This young adult historical fantasy had me totally engrossed and I would recommend it to anyway who loves historical fantasy/fiction (especially British) whether you’re a teen or an adult. " FIVE STARS
"Denning has a real thirst for historical knowledge and this certainly shines through in his books, with his descriptions of London in 1666 making you feel as if you were in the middle of the raging fire."
"Set amidst a time of terrible tragedy for London, it is also a historical treat for those of us who really enjoy learning about the past. Written in an easy style, it is highly recommended for readers of any age who enjoy historical fiction with a twist of paranormal. I am definitely looking forward to the next book in this series when it is released." FOUR STARS
This is such an exciting read, with lots of suspense and believable characters which I thoroughly enjoyed. I loved the way the author weaved elements of fantasy around the historical facts of the Great Fire, all obviously meticulously researched. 8/10

"I rarely read tween action books and was surprised by how much I enjoyed this book."
“A diamond of a compulsive read”
“At times, I literally couldn’t put the book down and was hooked to finding out what happened next. I was extremely impressed by your ability to keep the reader engaged with the action throughout.”
“The historical elements really shine and kept me interested, as did the atmosphere of a burning London and all the darkness and bleakness surrounding the terrifying Dantalion… The tension and suspense in the latter part of the book were terrific… at several points I had butterflies in my stomach.”
