Praise from the 1997 Saskatchewan Book Award judges…

“A wonderfully entertaining, imaginative, and well-crafted book for young adults…This book is well-paced and controlled and never becomes moralistic… A great read!… Highly recommended.”

…the Regina Sun…

“This is a complicated bit of writing. The characters are involved in a variety of strong relationships which help create the drama…in this story, Weyburn is not a quiet, little city. The writing is fast-paced and readers will be amazed at just how wild Weyburn gets.”- Jocolyn Caton, The Regina Sun, March 8, 1998. Read the complete review
