PRAISE FOR ARCHIBALD LOX AND THE SLIDES OF BON REPELL "Some trademark Darren Shan jeopardy in this instalment. We were on the edge of our seats!"
The Bookbag.
"While I love this whole series, so far this book is my favorite."
Kelly Smith Reviews.
"I could not put the book down -- reading in such short bursts I'd pace around my kitchen, book in hand, chewing the inside of my bottom lip with nerves. This series truly showcases Darren Shan's abilities as a writer."
The Literary Connoisseur.
"
The Slides of Bon Repell is the best instalment to the series yet."
Rachel Hobbs, author of Shadow-Stained.
"Shan is on a winning streak with this one."
The Word Cubby.
PRAISE FOR VOLUME ONE "A brisk, entertaining tale that unfolds in a wonderfully bizarre world."
Kirkus.
"I read quite a lot during lockdown but nothing made me smile quite as much as these first three instalments in the
Archibald Lox series."
The Bookbag.
"A masterwork of atmospheric writing. I would not hesitate to recommend
Archibald Lox: The Missing Princess to fans of Shan's existing back-catalog of thrilling dark fantasy adventures, as well as newcomers to the shadowy side of paranormal and magical fiction."
Readers' Favorite.
"Shan has created an alternative world that is extraordinary and imaginative with fantastical creatures that both delight and horrify. A soon-to-be fantasy classic."
The US Review of Books.
"A gripping saga that will be appreciated not just by young adult audiences, but by adults who enjoy other strong YA authors who create fantasy worlds appealing to young and old alike."
Midwest Book Review.
"Filled with fantastic characters, true to form description, and Shan's distinct writing style, Archibald Lox is sure to enthrall readers of all ages."
The Haunted Wordsmith.
