""Tragedy and comedy fuse together perfectly in a labyrinthine mystery of emotional and psychological complexity."" -- Jo Brand

""SCREAMING, CRYING, THROWING UP! Cry Havoc is a fever worth catching, a gloomy and gorgeous pleasure."" -- Maggie Thrash, author of Rainbow Black ""Rebecca Wait has a gloriouturn of phrase and a dazzling ability to go on peculiar tangents that never detract, but only ever add to a character's experience. . . . Wait's writing is dry and droll, her characters twist, thoughtful and highly specific, and Havoc is a total blast of a read, perfectly pinpointing where tragedy and wryness meet."" -- The Irish Times ""It's a wonderfully droll English tragicomedy, with darkness and bite."" -- Bookish ""A master of zippy one-liners."" -- Sunday Times ""Eerie and utterly absorbing . . . a tragicomic triumph about adolescence, identity and how quickly order can unravel."" -- Image Magazine ""A biting and savagely funny novel."" -- Red Magazine ""Tragedy and comedy fuse together perfectly in a labyrinthine mystery of emotional and psychological complexity."" -- Jo Brand
