Description
Book SynopsisNick Harkaway is the author of
The Gone-Away World and
Angelmaker, and of an even better and more exciting novel whose name will probably end up being
Tigerman, or possibly
Man, Island, Boy. Contrary to what you may have heard, the title really is the hard part. When he's not writing, he spends his time being the husband of a brilliant lawyer and the dad of two small children who are secretly bent on world domination. He likes Italian red wine and lives in a bit of London where the taxis still have a horse at the pointy end.
Trade ReviewAngelmaker is another cracking book from Nick Harkaway. It’s a mix of sci-fi, steampunk, adventure and romance and the mix of genres work really well together … Harkaway’s
Angelmaker is a brilliant piece of escapism. It’s a wonderful example of how an irreverent approach to much loved genres can lead to a truly great story. * Nudge *
Splendid cornucopia of a novel * The Big Issue (Wales) *
Nick Harkaway's joyfully reckless invention is as intricate as clockwork ... Edie has a tangled history, the uncovering of which is one of the chief pleasures of Nick Harkaway's novel ...
is one of the most enjoyable books I've read in ages ...
brilliantly entertaining, and the last hundred pages are pure, unhinged delight. What a splendid ride. -- Patrick Ness * Guardian *
What kind of a mind dreams up Angelmaker … It
could only be Nick Harkaway:
bonkers, brilliant and
hilarious …
clever and entirely fantastic. * Sunday Times *
An
entertaining tour-de-force that
demands to be adored. * Independent on Sunday *
