    Reviews of André Jute’s novels

    “Wild but exciting. A grand job with plenty of irony.”
    New York Times

    “So bizarre, it’s probably all true.”
    London Evening News

    “This is an important book.”
    Sydney Morning Herald

    “Keeps up such a pace and such interest that it really satisfies.”
    Good Housekeeping

    “A masterly story that has pace, humor, tension and excitement with the bonus of truth.”
    The Australian

    “Jute has clearly conducted a great deal of research into everything he describes, investing the novel with an air of prophecy. His moral and ecological concerns are important.”
    Times Literary Supplement

    Andre Jute's Iditarod is the finest piece of fiction that I have read about The Greatest Race on Earth. Packed with adventure at every turn, nail-biting suspense, touches of endearing humor and the fine, subtle thread of romance, this tale speaks to what readers crave.
