"Dark, disturbing, and filled with moments of real charm and magic, The Music of Razors is the best first novel I've seen this year." - Locus
An exceedingly fine novel... You feel this book is true and the characters are real. The Music of Razors tells a beautiful and deeply affecting story, full of wonder, strangeness, pain and love. Cameron Rogers writes like a magician. K. J. Bishop, author of The Etched City
"Apart from Storm Constantine and Poppy Brite there haven't been any notable Goth contributors to modern fiction that I'm aware of, which seems odd, but you should now take serious note of this man... for this gripped me relentlessly." - Mick Mercer, author of Hex Files, and The Gothic Rock Black Book
"Slippery and quick with a bite that won't let go long after you turn the final page. The Music of Razors is superior fantasy, fast-paced and seductive. It digs deep for effect and delivers." - Sean Williams, author of The Resurrection Man and The Stone Mage andThe Sea.
"This is a dark and disturbing story, packed with surreal images that haunt you long after you've put down the book." - Storm Constantine, author Sea Dragon Heir and the Wraeththu trilogy.
"This was an impressive first novel. Cameron Rogers weaves a thought-provoking and compelling dark fantasy from the mythology of religion." - Jeff Ford, author of The Girl in the Glass.
"... a book brimming with ideas, indicating a strong new contender in the horror-fiction stakes." - The Age (May 6th)
