Forgot to mention the first volume of ARIA is Left Luggage. It's apocalyptic in that infectious amnesia diffuses from the opening of a case from space and within months society breaks down - well, wouldn't you? 5 * reviews including "Endorsed by Mike Resnick ARIA is only for readers desiring a...

How heavy are you? ;) Obviously if you are Lisa Tuttle (reviewer occasionally for the Times) or Amazon reviewer top scorer then yeay, but I'll be happy for anyone who either blogs or places reviews on review sites like this one, and Amazon, etc.
Hello there, Meadow. Well, that's an interesting question. I am seeking a reviewer who enjoys medical mysteries, characters that sing from the page, an original high concept, a plot that moves quickly and yet takes time to ponder, for romance here and there, and angst. A reviewer prepared to be...

Just returned from babysitting duties in Manchester. Weather forecaster was spot on when she quipped: We're going to have the rain belt that keeps on giving. But I couldn't keep the toddlers in the house cos a floor man was hammering & the boys wanted to play with his nails & keep asking 'What...
Like my writing, my reading tastes in thriller mysteries are rather bizarre. I like humorous thrillers and so absorb gleefully anything by Michael Dibdin, who passed away too young in 2007. Especially enjoy his Aurello Zen detective / Mafia novels based in the Mezzogiorno in Italy - Back to...
1) NEWS in 2013: Voted best SF of 2012 at P&E Readers Poll. Suppose amnesia was infectious? Thank goodness it isn’t but imagine the ramifications if it was. ARIA: LEFT LUGGAGE is the personal story of people, the breakdown of society and yet hope for the few who escaped. Click on this link to...
Hi Martin, hope I'm not infringing any rules here but ARIA: Left Luggage is apocalyptic and post apocalyptic with an original concept. It won the Best SF novel of 2012 award at the Preditors & Editors Poll (top out of 86 entries) and there's a youtube vid trailer here
Cheers, Geoff
The Mythago Wood series by Robert Holdstock was read by my SFF book group recently and well received. Particularly intriguing if you are into arboreal spookiness.
If you want more than a hint of eroticism with your forest horror then Blood Fugue by Joseph d'Lacey published this year (2012) is a...
I'll e-hug you if you would kindly vote for ARIA: Left Luggage in the
current P&E Readers' Poll at
Critters Writers Workshop - P&E Readers Poll
If you do so, you will be contacted by critters at P&E (Preditors and
Editors - a respected writers' organisation) to click on a...
From conception of a unique concept (a rarity for any genre even SF) to
marketing was the mission of the Ideas4writers blog editor, Dave Haslett. So
with the sham agents, awkward publishers and helpful critiquers, here's the
complete confession of how ARIA came about.

It's been so long since I've been here.
Although I am mainly a writer and editor, I belong to several book groups, both real life and online so I really qualify as a reader. I also recieve mostly science fiction and fantasy books from publishers to review.
I live in Chester, UK and travel...
Hello WV,
It is amazingly hard to convert a book to audio yourself. I have a humour thriller, Escaping Reality, that a couple of blind friends wanted as audio. It took me and two actors 16 hours to read a scripted version to a microphone. It should have only taken 11 hours but it is humour...
