Anmeldelser
«A dark and intriguing mystery, full of Pinfold’s breath-taking artwork.»
Editor's choice, The Bookseller
«Broodingly atmospheric ... A fantasy blending the strange and the everyday»
Sunday Times
«Luxuriantly illustrated by the fabulous Levi Pinfold. This exceptional book about friendship and paths not taken should rake in awards.»
Observer, The New Review
«This spellbinding story asks what you would do if you could rewrite history and wipe clean everyone’s memory of events — and even of people. This is the dilemma confronting troubled Hex when a menacing old woman offers to ‘disappear’ those who accuse him of causing an accident. Beautifully written and illustrated, this is poignant, dark and thought-provoking»
Daily Mail
«With darkly beautiful monochrome illustrations by Levi Pinfold, this is a story about best friends Hex and Tommo who find themselves caught up in a bargain that changes their world. With classic Grimm-esque fairytale vibes, this is a Stranger Things style tale that’s utterly spellbinding»

«Poet AF Harrold’s The Worlds We Leave Behind (Bloomsbury) – a contemporary fairytale about accidents, decisions and alternate realities – was dizzying in its scope. Levi Pinfold’s sensationally dark, atmospheric illustrations only amplified»

«AF Harold is an astonishing writer and this story of lost and found friendships is brimming over with dark imagination and magical storytelling. No one will be able to forget spending time in his world»
Keith Gray
«A “what if” story about alternative versions of lives, and the consequences of our actions. Levi Pinfold adds dark, realist, atmospheric illustrations that heighten the drama.»
Children’s Book of the Week, The Sunday Times
«A beautifully written dark & twisty book which lingers long after the final page has been turned. Levi Pinfold’s haunting illustrations add to the magic»
Hannah Gold, author of The Last Bear
«Yet again A.F Harrold & Levi Pinfold have produced a near perfect work of art. Harrold words bring wit and wonder together, and their spirit is beautifully caught by Pinfold’s images.»
