'Chillingly seductive' - Independent

'Blame global warming, but trolls are moving out of legend to scavage at the outskirts of Finnish cities... Sinisalos strange and erotic tales peer at the crooked world through a peephole. The troll comes to life after hours, unleashing glittering desires... Is the troll becoming more human (hurt, jealousy), or does he merely reveal our own trollishness?' - Guardian

'An imaginative and engaging novel of urban fantasy... Overlapping narrative voices nicely underscore the moral of Sinisalos ingeniously constructed fable: The stuff of ancient legend shadows with rather unnerving precision the course of unloosened postmodern desire' - Washington Post

'Simple but powerful... A thoughtful, inspiring and rewarding work' - Gay Times

'A wry thriller-fantasy... Each discovery sounds like the voice of a storyteller reminding us of how the gods play with our fates' - The New York Times
