Reception
Wendy Graham reviewed Land Under England for Adventurer magazine and stated that "The cover blurb says that this is a work of extraordinary power. The only power it had for me was to bore me, as the hero Anthony Julian thrashes on and on about his anguish and torment. I mean, there is a good tale under it all, but I found that I could read one paragraph per page and still follow it all perfectly. Read the foreword to the book in the bookshop, it gives the whole story in a couple of pages anyway."[2]
