"The Diemenois succeeds because of several factors, firstly its attention to detail. Clennett knows, like any fantasy writer worth their salt,

that to create a credible imaginary realm involves world-creation. The result is a triumph of the graphic novel, strange, dark and very Australian."

- Lucy Sussex, The Age -

"It's a strong premise, and from it the story proceeds in two directions at once. The lonely, gothic weirdness of early Tasmania is on full display: the isolation and displacement of the European on foreign soil underpins everything,

and violence is only ever just outside the frame."

- Michael Lucy, The Monthly -

"JW Clennett creates a narrative so convincing I admit I put Google to use a few times in order

to sort fact from fantasy... By the last few pages

I was bowed over in anticipation as I raced toward

the heart-wrenching conclusion"

- Jamie Ashbird, Melbourne Review Of Books -

"It's dark, it's intricate and it's a fascinating alternate history with rich story threads shot through. It's un-put-down-able."

- Paige Turner, Warp -
