""a tour de force ...an interrogation of Scotland: its past, its present and possibilities for what its future could look like, ranging from the inspiring to the horrific... 'Retrovival' is Thompson's most engaging and hard-hitting book since 'The Brahan Seer'..."" Margaret Elphinstone, author of The Sea Road and Lost People. 
""Retrovival is a wild, futuristic archaeological romp into Roman Britain, with a plot entwining past and future like a Celtic knot. This riveting story returns us over and over to the crucial present-day issue of how tussles between truth and power shape our civilisation."" Mandy Haggith, author of The Last Bear and The Stone Stories trilogy
