Cyrus Darian and the Technomicron

My latest novel...a steampunk adventure called Cyrus Darian and the Technomicron has had its first reader review on Amazon. And what a stonkingly good review it is!

'I hate demons, faeries, mages, necromancers, the works! Hate 'em. It's lazy fiction as far as I'm concerned. Fantasy is an emotional desert to me, irrespective of whether your fantasy happens in the ruins of Minas Tyrith or along a... read more »

Raven Dane gave to: Apartment 16 by Adam Nevill read in September, 2011	My rating:
Loved it! Very creepy, at times almost unbearably tense and scary. And an original and totally unpredictable plot. Adam Nevill's writing is taut and excellent. One of the bright stars of contemporary British horror writing.
