Firethorn by Sarah Micklem - Review book available!

alexmc6 — 2006-03-05T19:08:15+00:00

Alex McLintock writes:
Sarah Micklem was the big debut author of 2005 for Voyager, and this March brings the release of Firethorn in paperback. Through this stunning novel, Micklem has introduced an unforgettable heroine into the fantasy pantheon, addressing issues of violence, love and how these can often blend together. At once earthy and magical, gritty and violent this is a stunning work not to be missed…

And they were kind enough to give us a review copy in paperback.

Greg Bear, Quantico

Alex McLintock writes "We have received a copy of the latest Greg Bear novel "Quantico". Which one of my lucky reviewers will claim it first? I fear it looks like Mundane SF being a book about a near future with FBI agents battling terrorism. (There is nothing to say SF on the cover which points to it being marketed at the mundane population. Let's face it - the existing Greg Bear fans will buy it anyway)."

An Occupation of Angels by Lavie Tidhar

Star Wars Jedi Trial

Gosh, don't they write a lot of these. We have a review copy of "Jedi Trial" which is a Star Wars novel between Attack of the Clonse and Revenge of the Sith. If you want to review this hardback then give us a shout through the usual channels.

Terror from Middle England received

alexmc6 — 2004-10-20T17:15:31+00:00

We have received a copy of "Terror from Middle England" by Sarah Crabtree. I'm halfway through it but maybe another reviewer would like to take it off my hands. I am reluctant to review books by people in the same club as me. It seems to me to have a problem with the secret of comedy...... timing
