"This has a real Garth Nix feel to it, and lovers of Nix will be huge fans immediately. Although it is quite a light-hearted read, there is a dark undertone that pulls Ministry of Pandemonium away from being a junior fiction. A great new series for dark fantasy lovers."
— A (4 out of 5 stars)
" The Ministry of Pandemonium is original and I didn't mind it although it wasn't amazing and it probably wont stick with me. Ben Havester is a normal boy when until he meets Mr October which is the turning point. This is very intriguing as they embark on adventures together. "
