Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“Defiantly individual and works in that interesting margin where myth, futurism, literature, and pop culture all interbreed.” —Times (London)
“Raymond Chandler for the 21st century.” —Esquire
“Grimwood’s latest tale reads as if Kurt Vonnegut were writing manga for the producers of Doctor Who.” —Publishers Weekly
“With Grimwood you find yourself caught in the enchantment of his fiction until that inevitable moment when something so nasty happens in such clinical detail that you want to look away, only, of course, you can’t…Grimwood’s best novel by far.” —SFSite.com
“Fast yet humane, hip yet bizarre, futuristic yet embedded in the absolute present moment of the world, Jon Courtenay Grimwood’s novels read like thrillers but maintain a kind of caring irony and clarity of political vision which not only make him one of the best of the new UK SF writers but suggest new directions for every kind of writing.” —M. John Harrison, author of Light
