Sweeping, soulful, and simply stunning… An unforgettable read. If you are looking for a saga with emotional depth, exquisite historical detail, and a cast of characters whose pursuit of beauty will stay with you long after the final page, look no further.

A moving exploration of an extraordinarily rich yet turbulent time in history, and will resonate strongly with those who believe in the intrinsic value of art. Dance For You magazine. FULL REVIEW.
A page-turning family epic… Twins Walter and Nina are wonderful, heart-warming characters. Lucy Ashe, author.
A stunning piece of work and I was instantly invested in it. It will proudly stay in my library and anyone interested in this type of novel should pick it up… The pages just kept turning themselves.
I actually found myself enjoying the dance parts more than I thought I would… A beautiful story of love, heartbreak, and living your truth.
Dance of the Earth is immersive, detailed, and very moving.
I absolutely devoured Dance of the Earth. I was hooked from the very first page… Holmes paints a hypnotic world of ballet dance and pulls the characters into this world so effortlessly… A powerful and captivating story.
I can see this book as a Sunday night screenplay adaptation, each episode full of dance, music and vibrant coloured costumes. This is a wonderful, very well researched book blending imagined characters with real people.
The detail and description is sumptuous and the length allows every character to breathe and develop, while still being a page turner.
