Description:
"If Charles Dickens had written a futuristic SF thriller, this would be it. Colin Harvey has outdone himself with creating memorable characters, a page-turning plot, and a world that is far from and somehow like our own." - Christopher Barzak, author of One for Sorrow, and The Love We Share Without Knowing "Damage Time is for science fiction readers who love "Homicide" or "The Wire," a gritty cop drama set in a future New York on the verge of collapse. Peter Shah is a memorable hero and the memory rip technology will make your skin crawl." - C.C. Finlay, author of The Patriot Witch and The Demon Redcoat " The strength of the novel lies not only in the depiction of a detailed future of hardship and privation, but in the expert characterisation of Shah: a lone figure whose origins leave him open to prejudice within the police department, and whose problematic relationship with an intersexual courtesan reveals his own deep-seated prejudices." --The Guardian Praise for Winter Song: "Harsh, sometimes grotesque, strongly compelling - a classical journey told in a new, uncompromising voice." - John Meaney "Harvey paints a grimly convincing portrait of a subsistence existence on the inhospitable world. Harvey's... novel depicts a fascinating universe of want and plenitude, to which he will hopefully return in future novels." - Eric Brown, The Guardian "[Colin Harvey] deserves a place on your shelf along with Asher, Reynolds, Hamilton and Stross." - Deadwood Reviews Praise for Colin Harvey's Previous Works: "The novel is familiar in a haunting way, yet unique in its storytelling... Teens and adults who love science fiction will enjoy this thought-provoking work." - Armchair Interviews (reviewing Lightning Days ) "...a unique, rich, yet realistic and believable fantasy world excellently written" - entrepreneur.com (reviewing The Silk Palace )
