Nick Hoult, Daily Telegraph
An incredibly moving yet uplifting account of his career of high achievement and fall to the depths of mental illness
Paul Newman, Daily Mail
A profoundly moving book
Donald McRae, Guardian
Robin Smith is one of the most-loved cricketers of his era… [The Judge] documents his time in the game, as well as the harrowing struggles he suffered when the eyes went, the runs stopped, and real life intruded. Recommended
Phil Walker, Wisden Cricket Monthly

UK Press Syndication
A red-blooded memoir told with unexpected sensitivity
Emma John, Guardian, *Books of the Year*
