Two more wonderful reviews for Aerth... I am pinching myself as it seems unbelievable for a book I thought was probably unpublishable. Not everyone will like it, of course!So here is one from The Telegraph, by Luke Kennard, poet, novelist, and Professor of Creative Writing at Birmingham University.

And another by renowned science fiction author Lisa Tuttle, in The Guardian.
I am still at the stage of marvelling that my book has even got reviews, and that they are generally favourable. Inevitably there will be some one-star reviews! Hopefully the thicker skin I have grown over years of rejections will stand me in good stead.
The book launch comes up in 10 days' time, at Stanfords Bookshop in Bristol. This will be really fun as many of my friends and family are coming along.

Hi Deborah, I've just finished Aerth. A perfect rainy day read, that challenged and cocooned me with it's exquisite blend of dystopian hope. Many congratulations on your deserved success!
