About the Author

Robert Dickinson lives in Brighton, England, and his life to date has been shockingly uneventful. His two previous novels were published by a small press. The Tourist is his third novel.

Reviews

"As fresh and compelling as it is high concept ... Packed with dry humor, satirical swipes at the twenty-first century, and vivid characters....Immensely enjoyable."--SFX

"Dickinson has created a bleak future world and spins a plot most appropriate for readers who appreciate ambiguity."
--Booklist

"Riveting"--The Sunday Times

"The leaps of time, identity, and chronology create a dark, chillingly claustrophobic atmosphere."
--Publishers Weekly

"The story is slowly but surely teased out, intermittently dropping little details while advancing the plot at a breathtaking pace."--SciFiNow

"Welcome to the 21st Century....Echoes of Bradbury and Orwell, in the service of a crackerjack conspiracy plot; a seductively intriguing work of speculative fiction."--Kirkus
