A swashbuckling thriller - Pirates of the Caribbean meets Firefly - that nevertheless combines the author’s trademark hard SF with effective, coming-of-age characterisation [review for Revenger] - Guardian
A must-read… an unexpectedly personal and emotionally-driven tale of determination and retribution - with some great twists along the way and a gutsy heroine who will appeal to fans of young adult literature [review for Revenger] - STARBURSTBasically, it’s TREASURE ISLAND meets MOBY DICK, set in space, with a nice BLADE RUNNER-ish colour palette and a cast of characters worthy of a Terry Gilliam movie. I loved it [review for Revenger] - JOANNE HARRISReynolds makes the human story compelling in a narrative that, spiced with bizarre characters aplenty and propelled by vengeance, smacks intriguingly of everything from Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island to Mad Max [review for Revenger] - NatureAbout The Author
