What Readers & Peers Say
“There’s a Terry Pratchett style in Dave’s writing, so it’s confirmed: I have to read his book!”
Anike Kirsten
Science Fiction Fan
“I loved the dark comedy splashed throughout this story (Dead Men Tell Tales) e.g. when it comes to explaining why the Triads (yes, they still exist in the future) use eunuchs”
Anonymous reviewer
It’s (The Merit of One Gold Piece) a neat and rather gritty read that manages a clever melding of styles, and it’s definitely a story to check out!
