I'm currently about a third of the way through this and it's excellent. Anyone else picked up a copy?

It really pisses me off that Virgin are quitting this horror line: the releases have been top class.

Got this at the weekend and read it in almost one go. Fucking brilliant. Absolutely deastating, harrowing and beautifully written. Anyone who hasn't yet- BUY IT.

Not got that yet - currently most of the way through 'London Revenant' though, and loving that. 'One' looks excellent so I'll be picking that up soon.

I'll be getting it. Managed to chat to Conrad at Eastercon. Witty, sensitive and a wonderful writer!

Everything Simon Bestwick said. It's currently in a bare-knuckle scrap with The Unblemished for the title of best Conrad Williams novel to date - and there's still Decay Inevitable to come later this year.

I recently read both London Revenant and One by Conrad...(..First name of course...He has one of my albums...slurp:-)..)

One was bloody shocking. It's the bleakest novel I have read for many a moon..In fact it makes a McMahon read like a cheerful chat!

C'mon Zed, you will have to get grimmer!
