Reviews

‘"Castle of Water" is a unique, inventive exploration of love, loss, and survival. The novel's two characters, lost and alone on a Polynesian island, must rely on each other when the world has forgotten all about them. "Castle of Water" is a compelling portrait of what it means to be rescued–both literally and figuratively–by hope, ingenuity, and love.’ – Kristin Hannah, #1 "New York Times" bestselling author of "The Nightingale" ‘Brilliant, clever, riveting pick your adjective, they all apply. But do pick up "Castle of Water," just be careful when you pick it up. For Huckelbridge has spun a yarn that is sure to cost you sleep while you race to the remarkable end. It's that good.’ – Thomas Christopher Greene, bestselling author of "The Headmaster's Wife”
