Geoff Willmetts, SF CROWSNEST
"If you like to think as you read, you're going to love this book. I've always said that SF and the spy thriller are very much close bedfellows and "Cowboy Angels" is proving this. If you like to see both genres together, this book is a good place to start. "

Review
"A thriller that manages to combine high concept SF with cracking pace. More twists, turns and surprises than you could possibly hope for." (Steve Robinson
DEATHRAY 2007 PREVIEW )

SF CROWSNEST )
"Hard-hitting and brutal, the novel is a gripping, page- turning thriller that is also a timely reminder of the dangers of imperialism." (Eric Brown
THE GUARDIAN )
"A brainy, inventive, gung-ho techno thriller. Paul McAuley is an excellent writer, though his liberal outrage at what he sees as American imperialism is a bit predictable. I preferred his inventive Fairyland, just reissued in paperback in the Gollancz Future Classics series, but this one is highly recommended." (Andrew McKie
THE TELEGRAPH )
"A spy-fi yarn that feels like Ian Fleming writing a 'Sliders' episode. Will give readers a visceral Boy's Own kick." (Dave Bradley
SFX )
"McAuley provokes spycraft convincingly and proceedings eventually become extremely complex. A very professionally crafted adventure." (Gary Dalkin
DEATHRAY )
"Cowboy Angels is nothing if not compelling. A relatively gung-ho thriller." (Jon Jordan
EDGE )
"Breakneck pacing and narrative fluency - he juggles plot twists here to a quite awe-inspiring extent." (Roz Kaveney
