Pre-publication reviews of JGB’s forthcoming work — from Harper Collins/Fire and Water’s Ballard page:

Kingdom Come is important, germane, timely and creepy, a tidal wrack of ideas washed up on the artificial beach of our resort culture.” Will Self

Kingdom Come is a worthy addition to an extraordinary body of work. It is impossible to read one of JG Ballard’s books and not to marvel at his style and ability to capture the times in which we live. His writing has been a source of excitement and inspiration to me since I was reading library books under the covers by the light of a battery torch.” Louise Welsh

And here’s another review — from Marcus Gipps, who read a proof copy. I think it’s fair to say that Marcus takes the opposing view to Will and Louise. Warning: minor spoilers.
