"Witty and urbane" - Orbis, review excerpt #13
"There are some beauties to be found within its pages" - City Life, review excerpt #6
"All other poets could benefit from reading these poems and noting the absence of cliché and bombast, the lack of arcane vocabulary and prolix phrases... There are many poems to which I shall return many times to taste the humour or the aural flow or the killer last line and wish that I'd written them. I think the editor has the balance right in more than one sense. I recommend you buy it online immediately" - James Hartnell, Write Out Loud, review excerpt #17
"With so many voices given a free reign, the result is a refreshing variety of work. It's like a big box of poetic Quality Street. The standard is high... This collection - along with The Ugly Tree's continued success - shows that it is possible to have quantity, quality and variety" - Michael Whalley, Pipeline, review excerpt #14
"Don't forget to hail Paul Neads of The Ugly Tree" - Ra Page, bbc.co.uk/Manchester
