We've comprehensively compiled reviews of The Starless Sea from the world's leading experts.
Chuck Wendig 1.) It is a book in love with books, a story in love with stories, and as both a writer and a reader, that is DELECTABLE FOOD. It is brain food. It is heart food. (Source)
Pim Techamuanvivit @grubreport It is so lovely. And I love that the first book reference in that book was The Shadow of the Wind, and then on from there. It’s sort of like a zombie movie that doesn’t pretend to somehow take place in a universe where no one has heard of zombies. (Source)
