The Erstwhile is a dark historical fantasy novel by multi-disciplinary artist B. Catling that was first published in March of 2017.[1][2] It is the second in a trilogy of novels focusing on 'the Vorrh,' a massive and magical African forest.
The Erstwhile received generally positive critical reception, garnering coverage from a wide variety of publications.[3][4][5][6][7][8][9]
By contrast, the review at Kirkus calls the book "slow and murky" and criticizes its relentless focus on imagery over plot, characterization, or theme.[10]
