The Book

Posted By TestUser On 9th May 2007 @ 17:32 In Miscellaneous | No Comments

My debut novel, Debatable Space is OUT NOW, published by Orbit Books in the UK and US.

Here's the cover and the back-cover blurb:

Debatable Space, UK & US cover"Flanagan (who, for want of a better word, is a pirate) has a plan. The plan, at first, seems simple. Kidnap the Cheo's daughter, demand a vast ransom for her safe return, sit back and wait.

"The Cheo is ruler of the universe known to mankind.Only, Lena isn't the Cheo's daughter and the plan is far from simple. Fortunately, Flanagan has had a lifetime to work it out. Unfortunately, he has far less time to execute it.

"Debatable Space is a space opera of extraordinary imagination, and a brilliantly plotted novel of revenge."

[1] Award winning SF writer Jon Courtenay Grimwood describes it as: "well written, fast moving and defiantly weird in places - definitely a new voice worth listening to."
