Product Description

Review

"A psychological mystery of the first order. The characters are unique, the prose is smooth, the story fascinating. A superb first novel." -- Library Journal "Muir is little known in the UK, but on the evidence of this novel the author deserves a wider readership here. The writing in The Miniature Man is taut and the dialogue jumpy; Julian is a particularly vile character, but, in the context of his despair, his relentless goading of all those around him is scarily realistic." -- Booktrust The wonder we all say we're looking for: uniquely original, wonderfully well-written, totally absorbing. Structurally flawless. --Small Press Review

4.0 out of 5 stars Utterly Absorbing, 2 Oct 2006
By Mrs. Gwyneth E. Moore - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
A magnificent piece of fiction, truly engaging, the characterisation is solid and opaque, while the plot unravels slowly from multiple perspectives throughout. A great read.

4.0 out of 5 stars Defies description, 29 Jun 2008
By G. Cooper "coops456" (Essex, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I want to review this excellent novel, but I'm not sure how to describe it. Psychological thriller? Amnesiac mystery? All I can say is that it was utterly absorbing and I highly recommend it.
