"Krol is adept at creating suspense while imbuing the story with an unexpected amount of compassion and tenderness."--Publishers Weekly
"[Krol is] a mesmerizing storyteller with a taste for grotesque, wildly improbable satire.... [A] clever, gory, suspenseful, and outrageous novel."--Booklist
"[Krol's] writing is sharp.... [He] expertly turns his adventure story into a pointed commentary on the nature of tribal hatred. An unflinching, nightmarish fable with plenty of smarts behind it."--Kirkus Reviews
"What an audacious book. I loved it. A 20th century adventure that could only be told in the 21st. Wild, daring, honest, gruesome."--Daniel Wallace, bestselling author of Big Fish
