HellSans has been unleashed! You can order it directly from Angry Robot, pick it up from all the usual major bookstores, or your local indie, including my own local Lighthouse Books.
REVIEWS
HellSans has been getting some great reviews.
For the Scotland on Sunday, Stuart Kelly called it:
“a baptism of fire… The convergence of flesh and technology has rarely been so vivid as in this remarkable dystopian thriller”, it’s “a rollicking read, but one with serious intent.”
For The Guardian, Lisa Tuttle said:
“That one person’s heaven can be another’s hell is brilliantly and graphically depicted in this novel set in a near-future Britain… This is a violent and compelling thriller, fuelled by real anger and compassion, with far more psychological and moral complexity than the general run of dystopian fiction.”
Simon Ings for The Times called it:
“A cracking read” and said that “Dundas conjures up an impressive amount of crazy.”
In The Skinny, Alistair Braidwood states:
“HellSans only confirms Dundas as a writer to treasure” and “It is a visceral and vicious novel in places – a body horror with brains. Imagine Ray Bradbury meets David Cronenberg, and it’s as thought-provoking and outrageous as that sounds. Ever Dundas has written a book which challenges, shocks, and enthrals.”
The Nerdy Narrative says:
“This book is written in 3 parts, where you can choose to read either part 1 OR part 2 first… Part 3 is so clever in how it sort of broke the 4th wall talking about the first 2 parts and you learn why it’s written that way – which really gives this book an interactive feel to it and added to the charm of the reading experience.”
For SF Book, Sam Tyler calls it:
“A unique recipe of messed up” and says: “Dundas is not finished with the interesting twists on narrative as the reader starts to realise that what they have already read may not be all that it seems. This was a very clever way of manipulating the story and reader. It is no gimmick and directly plays into how the characters are feeling and how the book concludes both of which are highly satisfying.”
