A good review in The Daily Mail. Not my first choice of newspaper politically, in fact about my last, but the only tabloid with a decent books section any more.

'...a brilliantly rendered tale of supernatural skulduggery with swords and codpieces, plots and plagues. It is delivered with humour, gut-churning detail and the narrative drive of a charging knight.'
