Review:
An entertaining debut and one that more than holds its own against Cornwell et al (TLS)
Quite simply, Hawk Quest is the best book I've read this year. I loved this book. I wish I'd written it (Ben Kane)
Lyndon's story carries readers from one vivid scene to the next with great style (Sunday Times)
An 11th-century epic with action to equal the best of Bernard Cornwell. THIS is writing (Anthony Riches)
This magnificent novel has all the breathtaking cruelties and valour a lover of historical adventure and romance can wish for (Historical Novels Review)
A swooping adventure story of epic proportions (Choice)
Only once in a generation does a first novel emerge which has such power and depth and scope. With Hawk Quest, Robert Lyndon has shown himself a master storyteller of the highest quality. An absorbing, viscerally moving epic that takes the standard historical fare of love, treachery, passion, and redemption and lifts them into a new stratosphere. I got lost in this for days on end, and never wanted to emerge. Outstanding! (M.C. Scott)
