"Macardle is a fascinating example of the bamboozling complexity of history. So many of her beliefs seem to clash, and it is the sites of these collisions that make her work so rich . . . This latest reissue of her earliest short stories provides a beautifully presented and valuable resource for anyone interested in Irish history, culture or literature."

- Elske Rahill, Dublin Inquirer

"Beautifully written, with a fine air for the music of language and vivid descriptions of the landscape."

- Peter Tennant, Black Static

"Earth-Bound and Other Supernatural Tales by Dorothy Macardle is a beautifully produced little hardcover reissue of nine stories originally published in 1924. Four additional stories are included in this new edition. They were written by the author while she was a political prisoner in Dublin."

- Ellen Datlow, Best Horror of the Year 9

"This collection of unique supernatural stories is steeped in the wondrous mysteries of Ireland, set against the backdrop of the struggle for Irish independence and deeply embedded in the tragic circumstances of its author."

- A Ghostly Company
