Description: "The Bookmanpokes at the fat and waddled body of steampunk with its walking cane and leaves it on the roadside with its fresh take on Victorian London without loosing any steam on its way." -Loudmouth Man "The Bookmanis a delight, crammed with gorgeous period detail, seat-of-the-pants adventure and fabulous set-pieces." -The Guardian "This is a steampunk gem... Bring on a sequel, Tidhar! I'm craving to know what happens after the ending!" -SFF World "An emerging master"- LOCUS Magazine Praise for Lavie Tidhar's Previous Works: "Tidhar beautifully evokes the power of technology " -The Fix(reviewing "The Dying World" fromClarkesworld Magazine) "...richly detailed characters in a well paced and well thought out story" -Tangent(reviewing "The Pattern Makers of Zanzibar" fromMurky Depths) "Tidhar's story reads like a drug-infused John Le Carre novel, if Le Carre wrote science fiction and dropped LSD as he pounded on the typewriter... an amazing accomplishment, and highly recommended." -The Fix(reviewing "The Shangri-La Affair" fromStrange Horizons) "It's stomach churning and very sweet at the same time, bizarreness and beauty like most of Tidhar's stories." -The Fix(reviewing "The Butcher and The Flykeeper - A Christmas Love Story"fromMurky Depths) "The strength of this work is the setting. It is incredibly inventive and fun... a wonderful story, especially for those who enjoy the more surreal edges of speculative fiction." -Tangent (reviewing "High Noon in Clown Town" fromPostscripts) "Tidhar's story is classic noir, but with its tongue firmly in its cheek from beginning to end. A very enjoyable read." -The Fix(reviewing "Hard Rain at the Fortean Cafe" fromAeon)
