"From lyrical descriptions of the desert scenery to the stark, unblinking views of acts of violence; from the black humour of the soldiers' exchanges to the fragile tensions of buried feelings - Dorgan balances the elements of his story to produce a book that has stayed with me long after I first read it."
Library Kat

"Through the backdrop of war, sometimes vivid in its detailed description, the writing is consistently superb. I was drawn in from the first page, touched by the characters and engrossed in the clever dialogue, which often portrayed a feel of realistic banter between the men. The end is thrilling, horrifying, absorbing and stunning.

This is the sort of novel that gives all Indie writers hope. Equal to anything mainstream that I have read it is a book worth reading. If only all Indie books could be this good."
