Neal Asher was born in Billericay, Essex, and divides his time between here and Crete. His previous full-length novels are Gridlinked, The Skinner, The Line of Polity, Cowl, Brass Man, The Voyage of the Sable Keech, Polity Agent, Hilldiggers, Prador Moon, Line War, Shadow of the Scorpion and Orbus.
Fast, furious, violent, slightly tongue-in-cheek (I think), and a
whole lot of fun that makes 1984 seem like a children’s tea party .
. . the start of another promising series from Asher. Go on, dive
in, you won’t be disappointed.
*British Fantasy Society*
Delivers plenty of thrills, and the climax also sets up a very
intriguing status quo for the second volume.
*SFX*
Action packed and thrilling, The Departure is a must for all fans
of contemporary science fiction who haven’t experienced Asher’s
visceral novels before.
*We Love This Book*
The Orwellian intro had me utterly hooked right from the start. I
simply couldn’t stop reading until I reached the end.
*WorldsInInk*
Fast, dramatic stuff . . . this is a book with lots of Asher
trademarks: rapid pace, great action, messy consequences.
*SFFWorld*
I had an absolute blast with this book . . . his work really does
get better and better.
*Falcata Times*
