The Encyclopedia of Early Earth Reviews

There's much myth and magic in the pages of this colossal work of illustrated fiction. * Monocle *
This is a hugely enjoyable and remarkable book, with much to discover below the surface. -- Jess Richards * Guardian *
It's a whimsical, light-hearted book that reads like the best kind of bedtime story - a new take on something familiar and much loved. -- Teddy Jamieson * Glasgow Sunday Herald *
There is a pleasing unity to these far-flung stories appearing alongside one another. Greenberg is clearly fascinated by the universality of myth. -- George Pendle * Financial Times *
Timelessly brilliant... Isabel Greenberg is clearly destined to make a big contribution to British comics. * Starburst *
