Edward Hogan
"Ed’s voice is utterly distinctive: strong, emotive, haunting. His powers of observation seem almost supernatural. I am struck by the careful, line-by-line craftsmanship of the writing, as well as the bold design of the whole. What I notice is how he sets the tone and keeps to it - it’s quite rare to find such resolution and clarity of purpose in a first novel."
Touching Distance

Rebecca Abrams
"Evokes beautifully a revolutionary world - science and politics in upheaval, the casualties strewn around."
Glister

John Burnside
"A master of language."
