PRAISE FOR JEFF NOON "It's a heady psychedelic mix, packed with literary allusions, which brilliantly explores notions of self-identity, personal awareness and how we fit into our own stories." - The Guardian on The Body Library "Rich, inventive and recommended." - Sci-Fi Now on The Body Library "A moody, grimy, ruthlessly funny read. its sense of play and sly manipulation of reader expectations - about metafiction, weird fiction, and noir - is still quite the trip." - Barnes & Noble Sci-Fi & Fantasy Blog on The Body Library "By writing a novel set in literature itself the author has created a new psychedelic meta-genre as well as a fantastic story that sticks in the mind long after the novel itself is read." - British Fantasy Society " The Body Library is a brilliant piece of writing that does a satisfying job of merging noir, magical realism, and a love of all things literary." - SF Revu "A disturbing and bizarre journey by one of the great masters of weird fiction." - Adrian Tchaikovsky , Arthur C Clarke Award-winning author of Children of Time on A Man of Shadows "Noon has written a kaleidoscopic noir novel of dizzying dream logic.

" - Publishers Weekly on A Man of Shadows "Clocks and watches form a recurrent motif in this artful, eerie novel that infuses the mystery genre with symbolism and soul." - Financial Times on A Man of Shadows "Wonderful and uniquely absorbing." - Starburst on A Man of Shadows "Noon is the Lewis Carroll of Manchester's housing estates: eccentric, surreal, and ready to take everything to its most absurd conclusion. In Noon's stories the cocktail of alienation, narcotics and gadgetry fizzes with energy." - The Times "Noon is a fiercely urban writer. [He] reflects the energy of the rave generation: the hammer and twist of the music, the language of the computer games addict and the buzz of technology." - New Statesman "Noon's blend of quirky ideas, striking prose and imaginative characterisations establishes him as one of the most original voices in imaginative fiction." - Booklist "Let's call him the first of the psychedelic fantasists.

" - Time Out "A virtual wonderland." - Vanity Fair "Humorous, horrific and wildly original. an imaginative masterpiece." - Library Journal "Observes most of the conventions of cyberpunk fiction [yet] its imagery is insistently organic, and owes more to the underground pharmacology of the rave scene than to the world of hard wired chips and user interface." - New Yorker "Intriguingly textured, reliably witty and inventive, Noon's whirling purposeful fantasy packs a full whallop." - Kirkus Reviews.
