Flying To Nowhere Bewertungen

A masterpiece * Sunday Telegraph *
As rich and exciting as Umberto Eco's The Name of the Rose, but deeper and more disturbing... It begins as a murder mystery but ends in a revelation of deeper mysteries of death and rebirth * New York Times *
Highly imaginative * Guardian *
A short, charged and imaginative fable-cum-murder-mystery which uses [Fuller's] gift for narrative and for elaborate metaphor to great effect * Sunday Times *
