Media reviews

Praise for Up and Down
 • "Not too many Canucks have ventured to write humorous books. There is Stephen Leacock, of course. And Robertson Davies cranked out a couple . . . Count Terry Fallis among the few to achieve success at the form." - Ottawa Citizen
 • "[Fallis] displays formidable chops when it comes to narrative pacing, wrangling subplots, balancing comedy and pathos." - Globe and Mail
