Recensioner i media

“Siegebreakers is at once a gritty, violent thrill ride and the first book I would hand to someone who wants to understand Gaza today.” — Dr. Tarek Loubani, emergency doctor and volunteer physician at Al Shifa Hospital in Gaza City // “Based on an industrious research, this dramatic and powerful tale shows once more the power of fiction to illuminate and expose what the media fails, or is unwilling, to disclose about life under siege in the Gaza Strip and its impact on the people incarcerated in it.” — Ilan Pappe, historian and author of The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine
