St James’s Budget.—“A volume characteristic of the author’s splendid powers.”
M. A. P.—“Mr Kennedy writes powerfully, and can grip the reader’s imagination, or whirl it off into the strangest domains of glamour and romance at will.… There is a future for this clever young man from Tipperary. He will do great things.”
Critic.—“Of a highly imaginative order, and distinctly out of the ordinary run.… The author has a remarkable talent for imaginative and dramatic presentation. He sets before himself a higher standard of achievement than most young writers of fiction.”
Cork Herald.—“Gracefully written, easy and attractive in diction and style, the stories are as choice a collection as we have happened on for a long time. They are clever; they are varied; they are fascinating. We admit them into the sacred circle of the most beautiful that have been told by the most sympathetic and skilled writers.… Mr Kennedy has a style, and that is rare enough nowadays—as refreshing as it is rare.”

Lady.—“A thrilling romance with a mediæval atmosphere, although the scene is laid in the Cotswolds in the year of grace 1898. The story is well constructed, and is a good example of the widely-imaginative type of fiction that is so eagerly devoured by young people nowadays.”
Eastern Morning News.—“Readers will be fascinated by the stirring scenes, the swiftly-moving panorama, the enacted tragedies, the wild, passionate, lawless loves depicted in the most sensational manner in this volume.”
