Steampunk and science fiction author Lavie Tidhar, whose novel Osama was this year shortlisted for the BSFA Award but cruelly not for the Arthur C Clarke Award, has reviewed Adrift on the Sea of Rains on his blog. He writes: “This is probably the best piece of science fiction I’ve read so far this year, and would be a more than worthy nominee for a BSFA Award next year.” Which makes me most happy indeed.
Lavie’s review, in all its complimentary glory, is here. As he says himself, I urge you to read it.
It Doesn't Have To Be Right...

Congrats on all the acclaim and positive attention flowing your way. Long overdue. ADRIFT ON THE SEA OF RAINS is a superb work of fiction, speculative or otherwise, and a tale that showcases your skill as a writer and your enviable and daring imagination.

I think ‘cruelly not for the Arthur C Clarke award’ might be going to far, makes it sound like the judges were out for some kind of revenge!
