Product Description
Daren King, Scotland on Sunday
'A fascinating story, told with tension, pace and humour'
Review
'Like all good fiction, it frictionlessly combines both the individual and the universal ... it's both an aria and a hooligan holler to the human spirit' (Time Out 20021101)
'It's a wonderful premise for a novel, and Goddard pulls it off with a flourish …DYNAMO is a smart, funny and engaging novel from a refreshingly unusual new voice in British Fiction' (Martyn Bedford, New Statesman (Book of the Week) )
'Sheer excitement ... a pacy story that matches Elmore Leonard in its mix of hyperbole and humour ... characters (that) slip into the reader's heart' (The Times )
'Very little football occurs in Dynamo, yet it remains as transfixing as a Maradona run and as surprising and wonderful as the recent Wales v Italy result. Dynamo, like football itself, is an affirmation and exaggeration of life' (Niall Griffiths, author of Sheepshagger and Grits )
'A colourful, pensive novel full of eccentricity and desperate humour ... DYNAMO's closing minutes grip like a vice' (Sunday Herald )
'A fascinating story, told with tension, pace and humour' (Daren King, Scotland on Sunday )
'Riveting, authentic, and very down-and-dirty' (Daily Mail )
'Past events are described with a lack of inhibition ... the eccentricity and danger of Soviet Russia breathe through these pages' (Telegraph )
Praise for 'Homage to a Firing Squad':
'Funny and inventive, a superbly written and immensely enjoyable read from a supremely confident authorial voice. A book to be read at one sitting.' (Whitbread judging panel )
