Reviews of The Sorcerer’s Letterbox

Here's what they're saying about The Sorcerer’s Letterbox

"This is a great book for kids who like both fantasy and history ... Rose includes terrific details from 1483 (all the while keeping the language accessible for young readers) that might just inspire kids to check out some history books from the library. An entertaining read, with a great feel-good twist at the end."
Cincinnati Family Magazine

"As with the best timeslip fantasy, the author's obvious zest for interesting historical detail is transformed into both a compelling story and an exciting adventure ... a delightful book, and one that has a rightful place in every library in the country."
University of Manitoba CM Magazine

"Simon Rose has managed to deliver another satisfying read with The Sorcerer’s Letterbox"
The Calgary Herald

"Intended for children, this book will also be enjoyed by all grown up fans of Harry Potter"
Avenue Magazine

"A well-written, suspenseful time travel story sure to keep readers engaged till its very clever ending."
BC Parent

"These three mid-grade adventures, two fantasy and one science fiction, will keep any self-respecting adventure fan glued to their chair and turning pages. Fast-paced, good tension and a satisfying ending are becoming Simon Rose's hallmarks. He has a finely balanced sense of pacing, knowing exactly when to crank the tension to keep the pages turning. In very few words, he can evoke the feeling of an era, and make the reader feel as though they are there with the main character. Boys and girls, and adults will enjoy all three of the books, and come back to read them again."
