Books & Reviews

"In essence, the author has created a work of art in word form." 

"Fennell’s haunting and poetic prose takes readers through the Godforsaken terrain of rural America on a wild ride to its stunning and heartbreaking conclusion." 

"Many of Fennell’s stories, which employ different narrative techniques, create effective tension and suspense."               

"Christian Fennell's novel presents a vivid, soul-searching account of life and death in America." 

"This dark coming-of-age story will impress readers with its distinctive writing and intense, at times violent, story."

"At times THE FIDDLER IN THE NIGHT is a thriller reminiscent of the dark, intense work of Cormac McCarthy. At times it’s a coming-of-age tale, or a precise portrait of middle America. It manages to be all these things, while also telling an absorbing story. This is a cat-and-mouse tale set in grand, lonely landscapes and peopled with characters that feel achingly real."             

"Haunting and ethereal, Fennell's stand-alone The Fiddler in the Night is a masterpiece of reflection that is at once gritty, disturbing, and hard to put down."
