Adam Roberts recommends
The Human Abstract (2004)
George Mann
"George Mann has forgotten more about science fiction than most people will ever know, and he puts his expertise and his considerable narrative skills to excellent use in this canny, highly readable tale."
The Memoirs of a Master Forger (2008)
William Heaney (Graham Joyce)
"How sheerly pleasurable it is to sink into a really well built, expertly handled novel. Superb stuff."
Fenrir (2011)
(Wolfsangel, book 2)
M D Lachlan
"Simply the most exciting, visceral and deeply imaginative writer of fantasy working today."
The Promise of the Child (2015)
(Amaranthine Spectrum, book 1)
Tom Toner
"Humming with energy, this is space opera like you've never seen it before: absolutely brilliant."
