"With a feline inscrutability, Composite Creatures exerts a compelling hold on the imagination – Ray Bradbury meets Sally Rooney. Deliciously creepy!"

– Chris Riddell, triple Award-winner of the Kate Greenaway Medal

"Nuanced prose and great sense of character ground the story as it delves unabashedly into the surreal, consistently catching the reader off guard with eerie imagery and delightful twists on expectations...as thought-provoking as it is chilling."

– Publishers Weekly

"The writing is wistful and works in such a way you don't realise how wonderfully strange the book is until you are enfolded in it."

– RJ Barker, author of The Bone Ships

"A strong debut, and one that makes me want to read more from this up-and-coming author."

– Marija Smits on Bone Ovation

"Caroline Hardaker’s debut poetry pamphlet is a triumph of contemporary myth-making."
