Review Quotes: "Rip-roaring fiction and imaginative adventuring on all planes of experience."
-- Times Literary Supplement

"Moravagine seeks damnation and extinction with a glee unequaled in literature. The only parallels that come to mind are Céline and Beckett."
-- Sven Birkerts, New Boston Review

"An unbridled picaresque fantasy...full of tenderness, horror, and ink-black jokes of a visual intensity that recall Goya."
-- Financial Times

"Savage, funny, wildly inventive."
-- John Lehmann, Sunday Telegraph
