Rezension zu „Fire-eaters “
a fine writer, one of the very finest we have. He is simply incapable of writing a bad sentence. [The Fire-Eaters] is for me David Almond's best book ... masterful in every aspect. ... There is the intensity of family life, wonderfully observed and delicately drawn ... fear pervades this book, fears we all know, but there is hope too. And we need that. How we need that. -- Michael Morpurgo, Financial Times Magazine Once in a while a book comes along that takes over your head and your heart. David Almond's The Fire-Eaters is such a book -- Wendy Cooling, The Bookseller Almond makes familiar issues fresh; his characters are finely drawn and his depiction of place perfectly realised. -- Julia Eccleshare, The Guardian a tale so marvellously told that it seems a shame to to label it as only for children ... Almond is exceptional in his ability to make happiness real, at the same time as suggesting its fragility. -- Justine Picardie, The Telegraph
