The Secret War
What they said about The Secret War...
- "...Curran has an engaging style which has produced a very entertaining book…Curran's talent is in ascension, and I for one cannot wait to read the sequel…" Prism - newsletter of the British Fantasy Society
- "...its gripping and above all it’s a tale that will suck the reader in from the first page… Definitely an author to watch although I wouldn’t leave this offering on the shelf for long, one of our tips to pick up and get into before the masses learn of them." Falcata Times
- "...Just the sort of book I love, a historical novel shot through with the elements of the fantastic to pump up the action and the scope." Rick Kleffel's Agony Column
- "The Secret War is great fun and a terrific read, an interesting take on a familiar idea that falls somewhere between epic fantasy and boys-own adventure it’s a heady mix that’s well worth investigating." The Disgruntled Writer
- "Well written, especially for a first novel, the early-19th-century setting is realised in grimy detail and the battle scenes are very graphically described." Otago Daily Times
- "Worth the read if you like your warfare bloody and brutal..." Graeme's Fantasy Book Review
- “Curran has produced a debut novel that’s tremendous fun…” Historical Novels Review
- “Impressive for any writer, but considering this was his debut novel, this makes it even more worthy of note…” The Bookbag
- “It's well written and well paced with the mud & blood of battle coming through strongly without obsessing over the gore. …it's an excellent read and thoroughly absorbing.” Un:Bound
- “The Secret War is well written and an easy page-turner…” Chronicles
The Books
The Hoard of Mhorrer
What they said about The Hoard of Mhorrer
- "Curran's is certainly a name worth looking out for, on the evidence so far and I, for one, am keen to see where things go from here..." The Bookbag
- "Well balanced, beautifully paced and extremely entertaining , it's a satisfying read." Un:Bound
- “Curran is obviously an exciting new talent in the science-fiction and fantasy scene… his prose is crisp and well-formed, moving at a decent enough pace to sustain momentum during the quieter moments, exploding into action scenes that have a visceral sense of momentum about them.” Sci-Fi Now Magazine
- “…exactly the kind of thing that invites labelling by fusion: Sharpe-meets-Dracula, Napoleon-meets-Warhammer…The Hoard of Mhorrer will appeal to many.” Deathray Magazine
