DAMAGED
'A powerhouse of a book, a thriller that sends off literary sparks in all directions.' Evening News
'Cruel, violent and lyrical, it's Iain Banks meeting Alan Warner in Tom Clancy's missile silo. Excellent.' Select
'Hard, Bleak and full on, this is one to carry around with you.' The Big Issue
'Good background, with an on-the-nail summary of Northern Ireland wheeling and dealing...and a wild Celtic streak that marks Conway as one to watch.' The Guardian
A LOYAL SPY
'A Loyal Spy has incredibly well drawn characters, evocative descriptive passages, and a superbly balanced narrative structure - the twists are unexpected but convincing and the final extended sequence is truly nail-biting. Terrific!’ Misha Glenny, author of McMafia
'Conway has concocted a credible, and wholly cynical, tale of dirt, death and double-dealing, of déraciné anti-heroes for whom perpetual conflict has become both lifeblood and poison. A riveting alternative history of the past 20 years.' Peter Millar, The Times
'Simon Conway takes you to the worlds most chaotic and dangerous places - and does it with the raw descriptive power of someone who's been there nd done that' Mark Urban, author of Task Force Black
'Alarmingly current, alarmingly possible. This is a book that captures the new world of asymmetric warfare and yet sustains the narrative and tension of the very best of the thriller genre.' Jon Snow, Channel 4 Newscaster
'Written by someone who has clearly spent time in the company of the Taliban, accuracy seeps out of every page' Geoffrey Wansell, The Daily Mail
'A conventionally stonking action climax.' The Telegraph
'a nerve-shredding thriller with lives you can believe in, and a plot that doesn't let you rest' Booktopia
'Thrillers that straddle the globe and have millions of lives at stake are standard issue in the genre. But this one does it differently. It’s sprawling, violent and contemporary, with whiffs of authenticity that lift it above the crowd' The Spectator
'It reveals the complexity of Afghanistan, Islamic fundamentalism and Western hypocrisy through a heart-stopping but utterly credible narrative.' The London Evening Standard
RAGE
A dizzying journey starring international terrorists, Uday Hussein, freelance salvage merchants and a container full of suffocated Kuwaiti businessman. Simon Conway's writing is authoritative and authentic. RAGE is a thriller that manages to balance adrenalin with intelligence.'
Scotland on Sunday
'Atmosphere, intrigue and one of the most impressive new political thrillers I've read in many a month.' Shots Magazine
'Excellent story set in the Zone...in a word: Great.' The Herald Sun
'Conway writes with brutal immediacy, his mordant irony resonating uncomfortably even as it entertains...Grim, kinetic thriller set against an unconventional and inspired backdrop.' Kirkus Reviews
