Untitled Roberts 2 Of 3

"The first person narrative is as peculiar as it is brilliant, the satire subtle and discomforting and the level of invention impressive. One of current sci-fi's most original writers. Watch out for this one on the award shortlists." -- Matt Coward MORNING STAR "It's all that SF should be, packed with brilliant ideas and clever examinations of the human condition. So hats off, if not heads, to Roberts." -- Guy Hayley DEATHRAY "This is a subtle parable, in a grave, perfectly appropriate voice." -- Andrew McKie THE TELEGRAPH "Land of the Headless is a darkly satirical tale that extrapolates an absurd idea into something weirdly plausible. This is not escapist adventure but a dystopian vision in the tradition of Swift, Orwell and Atwood against the cruellest extremes of human stupidity." -- Lisa Tuttle THE TIMES "A self consciously mannered moral fable in the style of Gulliver's Travel's or Pilgrim's progress. A voyage of self-discovery that satirises war, fundamentalist religion and love." -- Dave Golder SFX "Often charming and thought-provoking. Audacious high concept." -- Dave Golder FOCUS
