”Erika Vik’s debut novel Hän sanoi nimekseen Aleia rises up to challenge modern young adult fantasy classics such as the Twilight series. – – The reason why Vik’s novel has the potential to enter the international fantasy scene lies in its ability to offer readers something completely new while at the same time embracing many of the classic fantasy elements: an epic journey, mystical creatures and magical stones are all present in the novel. – – In terms of the language, Hän sanoi nimekseen Aleia is delightful to read. Vik has a way with words that gives the novel almost a movie-like feel, without sounding tacky. – – The world Vik has created is so carefully thought out and so credible, that the reader is immediately sucked in.”

”I was totally enchanted by this book — it was everything I want from a good book: adventure, fantasy, romance, science (!), travelling and it was deliberately finished. If this book will be available in English (and I do hope it will!), please read it!”
