Review:

'The most original novel of the year ... The trilogy, when it is finished, will be a great novel about nothing much - and therefore everything.' -- Craig Raine, TLS Books of the Year >> 'Hard to resist... Boldly conceived and written with extraordinary verve and inventiveness... a wholly immersive experience.' -- Peter Parker, Sunday Times >> 'Mars-Jones is a writer of wonderful originality and wit, and the redoubtable John is superb company.' -- Kate Saunders, The Times >> 'We are clearly in the presence of a formidable talent operating at full strength ... There isn t a passage here that doesn t sparkle with some well-phrased perception, neatly overturned clich� or freshly minted pun... [Mars-Jones] has become over the course of three years one of the most industrious and accomplished novelists in Britain. -- Leo Robson, Daily Telegraph >> 'One of the most brilliant fictional projects of recent years.' -- Philip Hensher, Spectator >> 'Cedilla is nudged along... on a tide of ideas, jokes, esoterica, wordplay and vignettes, and it has much to charm the reader... One of the most original comic creations in recent fiction. You won't regret going along for the ride.' -- Alex Clark, Guardian >> 'Mars-Jones is undoubtedly a wonderful writer and in John he has created a fabulously idiosyncratic character.' --Melissa McClements, Financial Times
