Merryll Manning On the Rim of Heaven

John Howard Reid is one of this country's greatest natural storytellers...Some critics have likened his works to those of Agatha Christie. I find the comparison a little unfair -- to Mr. Reid. If Reid's work needs comparing, I would liken it to Graham Greene's...Merryll Manning On the Rim of Heaven is one book you will find impossible to put down. - American critic, Richard Deutch, in The Sunday Telegraph. Compulsive reading...An engrossing thriller. -- John Hyde in The West Australian. Solidly real...Fast-moving dramatic action. -- Professor Stephen Knight in The Sydney Morning Herald. A well-constructed novel with a thrilling conclusion. -- Judith Green in Between the Covers. Particularly engrossing and easy to read...The author must be congratulated! -- Neil E. Lomas, editor, Warwick Daily News. Highly original...A worthy successor to Reid's earlier novels. The author shows the same lively imagination, yet gives his plot credibility. -- Leonard Ward in The Canberra Times.
