The N. Y. World:—“Mr. Chambers has a great command of words; he is a good painter. His situations are most delicately touched, and some of his descriptions are exquisite. He writes like an artist. He uses colors rather than ideas.... The best drama in the volume means madness. The tenderest fancy is a sad mirage.... ‘The King in Yellow’ is a very interesting contribution to the present fund of materio-mysticism.... To read Mr. Chambers’ little book is to escape from the actual on poetical wings.”
Minneapolis Tribune:—“They have a mysterious eerie air about them that is apt to stimulate the reader’s curiosity.”
Philadelphia Times:—“Charming, delicate, skilful, vivid.”
Philadelphia Item:—“Expected to make a sensation, charming, full of color and delicately tinted.”
Cleveland Gazette:—“It is wondrous strong, dramatic, full of color, weird, uncanny, picturesque, and yet a gem of exquisite coloring, dreamy, symbolic, exciting.”
