Description
Book SynopsisThe electrifying debut thriller from 2010 Steel Dagger award-winning author Simon Conway.
Trade ReviewDebut of a roaring and prodigal talent ... Not so much a novel as a life experience. Don't miss it. *
Literary Review *
Good background, with an on-the-nail summary of Northern Ireland wheeling and dealing . . . and a wild Celtic streak that marks Conway as one to watch. *
Guardian *
Cruel, violent and lyrical, it's Iain Banks meeting Alan Warner in Tom Clancy's missile silo. Excellent. *
Select *
A debut novel to rival
The Beach. *
Publishing News *
Imagine John le Carre on bad acid - edgy, twisted and very, very dark. * Howard Marks *
Good, youthful thriller, with tough, druggy characters, good Scottish locations and lots of action. *
Bookseller *
Bears comparison to Iain Banks at his best. *
QPD Review *
A powerhouse of a book that sends off literary sparks in all directions. *
Evening News *
Hard bleak and full on, this is one to carry around with you. *
Big Issue *
A very fine thriller...A hardboiled page-turner for the slacker generation. *
MixMag *
Dipping the ever-successful elements of guns and narcotics into an atmosphere of constant psychosis, DAMAGED is surprisingly believable. *
Face *
succeeds in painting a portrait of the world at once attractive and repellent * List *
