Bell centred on the stoning of a Haitian woman in Orillia, Ontario in the 19th century.[1] The novel, narrated by the teenage character Garnet Havelock, explores the themes of racism, religious intolerance and the debate between scientific reason and religious faith.[1] The book has been positively reviewed as accessible and highly involving, and appealing to a wide age of readers,[2] as well as being a suspenseful, absorbing read.[1] On the other hand, the novel has been criticised for having "not nearly enough of the ineffable spirit of a truly haunting ghost story".[1] The novel won the Young Adult Book Award in 2002.[3] A sequel to this novel, Fanatics, was published in 2011.[4] Footnotes1. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|url=http://www.quillandquire.com/books_young/review.cfm?review_id=2264|title=Review of Stones by William Bell|last=Posesorski|first=Sherie|date=2001|publisher=Quill & Quire|accessdate=14 January 2010}} 2. ^{{cite journal|last=Fraser|first=Betsy|date=19 October 2001|title=Stones.|journal=CM Magazine|publisher=The Manitoba Library Association|volume=VIII|issue=4|url=http://www.umanitoba.ca/cm/vol8/no4/stones.html|accessdate=14 January 2010}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.cla.ca/AM/Template.cfm?Section=Young_Adult_Canadian_Book_Award&Template=/CM/ContentDisplay.cfm&ContentID=2504|title=Young Adult Canadian Book Award|date=16 July 2002|publisher=Canadian Library Association|accessdate=14 January 2010|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20150908011543/http://www.cla.ca/AM/Template.cfm?Section=Young_Adult_Canadian_Book_Award&Template=%2FCM%2FContentDisplay.cfm&ContentID=2504|archivedate=8 September 2015|df=}} 4. ^http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9649608-fanatics References{{cite web|url=http://www.randomhouse.ca/catalog/display.pperl?isbn=9780770428754&view=print|title=Stones by William Bell|publisher=Random House|accessdate=14 January 2010}} 5 : Canadian young adult novels|Novels set in Ontario|Orillia|2001 Canadian novels|Novels about racism |
