“…a well-written and tightly-plotted narrative, a masterful sense of tension, and a small but well-rounded cast of characters who are sufficiently fleshed out to avoid being two-dimensional cardboard cut-outs…”

“…this passion for the era certainly shines through in the period detail; at every step, from training to trenches, the conscripts journey and experiences feel entirely genuine, and this does a great deal to enhance the story and draw the reader in…”

“…Mr Concagh’s story is so well constructed, with concise, clear writing, impressive levels of detail and a clear overarching narrative that my lack of knowledge did not detract from what is obviously a high-calibre piece of alternate history fiction….”

“Many A Hero Untold is another high-quality and engaging piece of alternate history published by Sea Lion Press, and one which gives a fresh take on Irish history”

“This is, therefore, a title that I can heartily recommend as a deceptively deep and often surprisingly grim piece of alternate history, very well-written and constructed…”

“…an entirely original and fascinating world has been built, but the narrative has barely scratched the surface of the possibilities it offers…”

“Remain Means Remain is the first anthology by Sea Lion Press, and it has set a very high bar, not only for its own titles, but also for quality alternate history in the genre…”

“I greatly enjoyed reading this title. It has a deeply interesting premise, a good level of writing throughout… I recommend it to any lovers of science-fiction or alternative history, and look forward to reading other works by Mr Murphy.

“…I think there is a huge amount of potential in the world that Mumby has built in this short story”

“…[Baker] has absolutely succeeded, breaking out into another genre while still retaining the powerful writing, skilled world-building and intriguing characters that were hallmarks of his other works.”

“The author has created two formidable books, which together create an engaging, well-written and thoughtful counter-factual history of a past (and future) that we were very lucky not to experience ourselves…”

“Agent Lavender is a fantastic piece of writing – by turns a Ludlum-like thriller, an incisive political commentary, and a brilliant romp through a worryingly plausible period of alternate history….”

“I really enjoyed this story, and I think that my only disappointment with it is its brevity and relatively small scale. By the end, I wanted a bigger and more epic version it…”
