"Seizure is terrific." Philip Pullman

"Erica Wagner has written a book that is unique, that defies categorisation. She has managed to weave familiar old tales, legends, psychology, neurology, and topography, into a fresh, poetic tapestry, a celebration of the human imagination and the power of story. It's a project that could have gone badly wrong. But it is a triumph because she has woven her words well. The composition is subtle, the language is superb. Nothing could be as poetic, as stunning, as magical, as the original stories that inspired this book. But Seizure comes close. It is a magnificent novel." Eilis Ni Dhuibne, The Irish Times
