Recenzii

'Debut 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
