Astonishingly prescient!

One of the most impressive novels ever written. The performance is faultless. It changed my view of literature.

Sandra Duncan's reading is sensational

Sandra Duncan's performance in the final chapter in The Bone Clocks is sensational. It was a completely immersive experience, more so than any other part of the book. Want to listen to the final chapter again, to revisit the transporting experience. What an actor! Another terrific book by David Michell.

Mitchell’s imagination

Every page has thought provoking ideas and intriguing insights into what may happen to us in the future

Many lives in one

Such an interesting and intricate novel - ticks all boxes for me! And great performance. Simply loved it and keep thinking about it.

Adventure through time

Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials meets Margaret Atwood's Oryx and Crake. A complex, compelling, and intriguing adventure through time and a parallel world. The many independent but intwined life stories of the various characters made this story hard to put down.
