Lord of Grim
A great review of One by Robert Morrish, in Dead Reckonings 5, in which he says, 'One is the latest impressive achievement from an author who has strung together a series of remarkable books... One is a darkly powerful tale that upholds and even enhances that legacy... With One, Williams firmly establishes his dominion as the king of bleak, the lord of grim.'
Horror Reanimated
Joseph D'Lacey has just posted an interview at the excellent Horror Reanimated site.

Black Static
A quite stunning review of One by Peter Tennant of Black Static magazine. A few choice quotes:
'Williams’ entry in the field of apocalyptic fiction is both an incredibly poignant tale of loss and a harrowing vision of horror.'
'While The Unblemished was a masterly novel, with One Williams raises his game yet higher, presenting the reader with a graphic depiction of hell on earth.'
