Critics Review

The funniest writer in Britain today

Brixton’s answer to Kurt Vonnegut - Uncut

Undeniably brilliant - Guardian

The funniest writer in Britain today - GQ

I [don’t] understand why Martin Millar isn’t as celebrated as Kurt Vonnegut, as rich as Terry Pratchett, as famous as Douglas Adams. I’ve been a fan of his work for almost twenty years - Neil Gaiman

The grungy, gory, glorious world that World Fantasy Award-winner Millar has created is unforgettable - Booklist

Once again, Martin Millar proves his deftness at helping us to understand the human condition of the outsider, the exiled of society, be they squatter, fairy, or a lonely werewolf girl - Andi Sex Gang

Brilliant … humorous, if violent, romp featuring quirky characters and situations - Booklist
