‘This is a great fantasy adventure as well as that rarest of things: a children’s book that is a great read for both children and adults’
Nomad Books
‘Each page brims with adventure, magic, darkness, tension and suspense... Port Fayt is an antonym of dull and Mason’s ability to describe each detail allows us to feel the sea salt breeze, taste the slices of fried octopus and greasy paper bags of shellfish, and gulp the flagons of grog’
Inis magazine
‘An excellent debut fantasy novel which will entrance readers in its humour, setting and essential humanity, but which is original, witty and wise. Full of pace and unexpected twists it will engage younger readers’
