Reviews of Ghost Moon

It has become something of a cliche for the reviewer to shake their head in bewilderment at the continued status of Ron Butlin as 'Scotland's Best Kept Literary Secret'. Each new publication adds evidence for Butlin's elevation to the pantheon of recognised Scottish greats and each subsequent book brings further disbelief that this hasn't happened yet. Ghost Moon is no different. — Totoro Gutter: The Magazine of New Scottish Writing
