Nina Allan recommends

From the Neck Up (2021)
Aliya Whiteley
"One of the most original, innovative and intelligent writers of specular"

The Breach (2020)
M T Hill
"One of the most innovative and outspoken new writers of British science fiction."

Time Was (2018)
Ian McDonald
"With echoes of H. G. Wells’s The Time Machine and replete with the inimitable scent of used bookstores, Time Was weaves an exquisite spell of love, war and quantum physics that is timeless in its appeal. A scientific romance in the most evocative sense of the word."
