Smashwords book reviews by Dan Holloway

Sentence of Marriage on Aug. 17, 2009

I loved this book when I found it on Authonomy, and I love it now.
Brief Objects of Beauty and Despair on Aug. 18, 2009

These are some of the most original and talented voices you'll find anywhere, let alone for free on the Web
DEAD(ish) on Sep. 03, 2009

Hey, I very much enjoyed this, and I loved the way you laid the book out. It feels as though you've thought about the e-format, and giving your readers a pleasurable experience. Very best of luck with it.
Glimpses of a Floating World on Sep. 04, 2009

This is a haunting, poetic account of subjecty matter that has no right to be this beautiful. Utterly wonderful
Far From Home - Part 2 on Jan. 18, 2010

I'm currently reading Bolano's 2666, and the clever, interwoven narrative on display here reminds me of Bolano's style a great deal. There's a very steady hand on show here, and some very clever, very well-written prose.
Whirl of the Wheel on March 26, 2010

This is a lovely book, a tale wonderfully told with a setting and characters that draw us right into their world and never let us go
The Girl on the Swing on April 03, 2010

This is a beautifully written book, with a great sense of place, superb characterisation, and the sense of an author in control of their work.
Make a Move on July 17, 2010

This is a marvellous piece of post-slacker Beat-style prose that draws the reader in and keeps them in its languid grasp till the end. Marvellous
