"Rod Flint has pulled off the difficult task of blending historical accuracy with a pacey, action-packed plot. The background detail is convincing, the dialogue consistent and linguistically plausible and the characterisation empathetic. I am looking forward to the sequels."
"Well researched and evocative of the period and place. Well recommended. I am looking forward to the next one."
"It provides a story of humanity in the midst of violent upheaval and a glimpse of how average people, who are so often my own heroes, might have coped and sought to claim back their own future."
"A grand romp through a part of our country too little appreciated in the company of likeable characters. Accessible by all ages. An easy and relaxing read. Another good read from this talented author."
"I just wanted to say thank you so much for writing The Harrying of The North series...they are absolutely wonderful."
"I bought the first a year ago...I couldn't put it down and got the rest of the series for Christmas."
"I can't remember enjoying books as much since Bernard Cornwell's 'Last Kingdom' series, and so you are up there with him in my eyes."
