Reviews
Gamayun Tales I collects together three of Alexander Utkin's interconnected stories based on traditional Russian folklore, filled with warm firelight and heroic strangeness [...] Utkin's words and images weave powerfully together to create an enduring sense of enchantment. * The Guardian *
The real star is Utkin's breathtaking visuals, in which chalky textures and vibrant tones of mustard, ruby, and cerulean create striking moments. * Publishers Weekly *
Accessibly priced at just GBP12.99 it gives a whole new audience of readers an opportunity to enjoy these stunningly illustrated folktales. * Broken Frontier *
