‘Creepy, compulsive Science Fiction’
Metro ‘Science Fiction for those who don’t think they like it’
Independent ‘A tightly knotted, expertly constructed space trip of
a read’
Guardian ‘The Explorer has the dreamlike detachment of an
Ishiguro
novel…. reminiscent of a 1970s space movie, where the darkness of
the void mirrors the darkness of the human soul’ Financial Times
‘Beautifully written, creepy as hell. The Explorer is as clever in
its unravelling as it is breathlessly claustrophobic’ Lauren
Beukes, author of THE SHINING GIRLS ‘A wonderful examination of
coping with loss, time and
death’ SFX ‘It’s like an episode of Star Trek written by JM
Coetzee’ Guardian
