Review

A dark, delicious flow of strangeness... On Stranger Tides reminds me why I came to love reading in the first place * Orson Scott Card * Tim Powers is a brilliant writer * William Gibson * Tim Powers has long been one of my absolutely favourite writers * Peter Straub * The reigning king of adult historical fantasy * Kirkus * The best fantasy writer to appear in decades * The Guardian * If you've ever woken half way through a fabulous dream and desperately wanted to know what would have happened next: relax. Those unfinished stories go to Tim Powers, and he's good enough to write them down for all of us * Nick Harkaway *
