Recenzii

Dangers are faced in London in an engaging, characterful debut . with enjoyably convincing family relationships
A breathless plot that hurls the reader from one tense situation to another, the adrenalin balanced by a liberal dose of humour . this is extreme writing for extreme fun. So what are you waiting for - open the popcorn, settle back and enjoy the ride
Aimed at young adventurers, Rohan Gavin's Knightley & Son, for age 10+, perfectly combines comedy and crime-solving as young Doc Knightley tries to discover what caused his father, a private investigator, to fall into a coma. This is an engaging debut and the tweed-loving Doc is a young Holmes for our times
Full of suspense, intrigue and humour this is a modern day classic detective mystery
Heaps of mystery, dry humor and tweed abound in this exemplar of crime fiction à la Doyle . A rousing page-turner with one fault: it ends
A lively romp which will certainly please young readers
This is a fun crime novel for young readers ... hilarious and a bit scary, it's a good adventure
Rohan Gavin has created a protagonist that readers will grow to love bookzone4boys.com My inner twelve-year-old took to Darkus pretty much instantly ... it reminded me of the Artemis Fowl books ... I'd recommend for the young Sherlockian, crime aficionado, or action fan in anyone's life
'Intelligent, thrilling crime fiction with quirky characters and bags of dry humour'
