Product Description
Matt Coward, MORNING STAR
"The first person narrative is as peculiar as it is brilliant, the satire subtle and discomforting and the level of invention impressive. One of current sci-fi's most original writers. Watch out for this one on the award shortlists."

"The first person narrative is as peculiar as it is brilliant, the satire subtle and discomforting and the level of invention impressive. One of current sci-fi's most original writers. Watch out for this one on the award shortlists." (Matt Coward MORNING STAR )
"It's all that SF should be, packed with brilliant ideas and clever examinations of the human condition. So hats off, if not heads, to Roberts." (Guy Hayley DEATHRAY )
"This is a subtle parable, in a grave, perfectly appropriate voice." (Andrew McKie THE TELEGRAPH )
"Land of the Headless is a darkly satirical tale that extrapolates an absurd idea into something weirdly plausible. This is not escapist adventure but a dystopian vision in the tradition of Swift, Orwell and Atwood against the cruellest extremes of human stupidity." (Lisa Tuttle THE TIMES )
"A self consciously mannered moral fable in the style of Gulliver's Travel's or Pilgrim's progress. A voyage of self-discovery that satirises war, fundamentalist religion and love." (Dave Golder SFX )
"Often charming and thought-provoking. Audacious high concept." (Dave Golder FOCUS ) --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
