Richard K Morgan recommends
Catchpenny (2024)
Charlie Huston
"Dark, soulful, laconic - like the very best of Tim Powers and Jim Thompson, thrown together in an L.A. dive bar after-hours. This is smart fantasy for our times, resonant and real, a love letter to youth and dreams and a biting critique of what the modern world is doing to both. Join down-at-heel, ruined dreamer Sidney Catchpenny and his ghosts on a turbo-charged narrative ride through the mean streets of a weirdly tilted noir, and find out what it means, once more, to care. Spread the word: Charlie Huston is back, and it's a triumphant return. Until I read Catchpenny, I never realized how much I'd missed his voice."
36 Streets (2022)
T R Napper
"36 Streets glows bright and hallucinatory as tropical neon, goes down smooth as warm sake, cuts deep as a nano-steel blade. Napper honours classic cyberpunk with fresh perspectives and hot genre recombinations, a nasty new future gleam, the proverbial new coat of paint. But there are more austere echoes here too, of Graham Greene and Kazuo Ishiguro, of a whole post-colonial literary heritage banging to be let in. In a genre stuffed with facile hero narratives, 36 Streets consistently chooses something else - messy humanity, grey moral tones and choices, hard-edged geopolitical truth. Raw and raging and passionate, this is cyberpunk literature with a capital fucken L. Get it while it's hot!"
The Hood (2021)
(Anti-Matter of Britain Quartet, book 2)
Lavie Tidhar
"Lavie Morgan has crafted a punk epic on the mouldering bones of legend and jolted it to life with ten thousand volts of knowing wit and fury."
