Recensioner i media

"The second volume in Jonathan Stroud's exceptional series ... Stroud's writing is inventive and funny, but be warned: this is packed with grisly ghouls and is not perhaps for the faint-hearted." -- Lorna Bradbury Sunday Telegraph "Seriously scary, brilliant prose." Metro "Plenty of humour alongside the chills." Financial Times "I've waited with baited breath for the second instalment of Jonathan Stroud's Lockwood & Co novels. At last, The Whispering Skull is here and it is definitely worth the wait." Scotsman Teen review "Stroud delivers another riveting narrative" Booklist
