Product Description

Product Description
DARK HEAVENS takes us back to Roger Levy's stunning vision of a world counting out its final years as it literally falls apart. London is awash with volcanic ash, the population fatalistically playing out their lives in VR. But ReGenesis, the radical movement who started Earth's death with a series of controlled nuclear explosions in the Marina's trench have not finished with the planet yet. RECKLESS SLEEP was a supremely assured and visionary SF debut. DARK HEAVENS builds on that promise with flair and verve. Roger Levy has made a name for himself in record time. This is a remarkable sequence of novels in the making.

About the Author
Roger Levy is a dentist and lives in Muswell Hill with his wife and their twin children.

5.0 out of 5 stars A gripping absorbing novel, 13 Aug 2003
By M. J. Odell (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Dark Heavens (Gollancz S.F.) (Paperback)
This book is almost impossible to put down before you reach the end.It is similar to Altered Carbon in style, though the story itself I found even more stimulating. Both offer a gritty view of the future. The characters are well drawn but it is the strong story line, excellent pace and surprise twists in the plot that make it an excellent read. It is a dark but believable view of the future incorporating a good scientific framework with administration corruption and manipulation of a desperate population. This future could well be closer than we think. The suspense builds throughout and even the ending leaves you wanting more. This is the first book I have read by this author and I will definitely read his others.

5.0 out of 5 stars lasting impressions, 21 Dec 2007
This review is from: Dark Heavens (Gollancz S.F.) (Paperback)
This is the sort of book that lasts for years in your mind. You'll find yourself thinking more clearly about new technologies, concepts of reality and social structures. The writing is quite beautiful - lyrical, yet precise, always thoughtful and thought-provoking. A compelling story.
