Reviews
This entertaining thriller makes good use of its watery setting, introducing readers to a rougher Venice, hidden behind the familiar facade of gondoliers and frescoes-- Morning Star on The Venetian Game, ...a quite excellent book... Philip is entirely knowledgable about the buildings and art of the city. It forms a perfect background to a very well worked thriller-- TripFiction.com, ...he puts not one foot wrong with his topography and knowledge... Add a satisfyingly (but not gratuitously) surprising and action-packed ending and you have a book that I can wholeheartedly recommend-- Jeff Cotton , Fictional Cities on The Venetian Game, The Venetian setting is vividly described and Gwynne Jones's good, fluent writing makes for easy reading-- Jessica Mann , Literary Review, ...a playful novel, recounted by a witty and engaging narrator ... as Venetian as a painting by Bellini (or a glass of Bellini). Oh, and it's also an unputdownable thriller-- Gregory Dowling on The Venetian Game, The interactions and the locations are the strength . . . and the travelling around full of sights and sparkle . . . one damn smooth and very fine Venetian read-- Fictional Cities, A crime book for people with sophisticated tastes: Venice, opera, renaissance art, good food and wine... I enjoyed all that and more-- The Crime Warp, A crime story that positively thrives among the shadowy streets and canals of Venice... Gorgeous escapism with stacks of atmosphere and double-cross-- Sue Price , Saga magazine, It is no surprise to find that Philip Gwynne Jones lives in Venice... art and architecture interweave into a story that builds to an almost surreal climax-- Daily Mail on The Venetian Game, Sinister and shimmering, The Venetian Game is as haunting and darkly elegant as Venice itself-- L.S. Hilton, bestselling author of Maestra
