"Barrington Stoke makes classics so much more accessible. Great Expectations, retold by the fantastic Tanya Landman, captures all the great characters of this essential Dickens." – Scope for Imagination, blog
"The author really captures the important aspects of this much-loved and well-known classic with perfect settings and characterisation … The short snappy chapters are brilliant and this re-writing is just wonderful." – Little Posts of Library Treasures, blog
"This strange story of bitterness, revenge, snobbery and control, played out with moments of huge drama and a cast of deliciously, mostly awful, characters, is cleverly streamlined by Tanya Landman. We gallop enjoyably through the action, forever led-on by promises and fears and hope. This version is written with those with a reading age of 9+ in mind, yet is a full-blooded reading experience for fluent reading people into adulthood." — An Awfully Big Blog Adventure, blog
