Review
`Inventive, deadpan, sardonic and cruel, [Tales of Terror] From the Tunnel's Mouth is a creepy autumnal treat' --James Lovegrove, Financial Times
`A spine chilling collection of short stories each of which will horrify but also delight readers with its creepy characters and unexpected occurrences . . . the black-and-white illustrations match perfectly and bring to life the gothic creepiness at the heart of each' --Julia Eccleshare, www.lovereading4kids.co.uk
`The stories are spine-chilling thrillers . . . a wonderfully nightmarish journey of the imagination - old-fashioned storytelling at its best'
--Daily Mail
