Praise For The Suicide Exhibition: A Novel (The Never War #1)…
“Justin Richards brings all his skills as a leading Doctor Who writer to this tale of wartime intelligence at odds with some of H.P. Lovecraft's worst nightmares.” —Michael Moorcock
“Justin Richards has reworked an old myth to nightmarish effect. You get the feeling that if the Nazis could have done this, they would. The Suicide Exhibition has a ghastly plausibility.” —Stephen Baxter, author of Doctor Who: The Wheel of Ice
“The audacious use of historical characters in this book owes much to the vast influence of the ever-changing Time Lord... And, with Richard's evident knowledge of historical settings, it works well.” —Fantasy Book Review (UK)
“If you're a fan of gritty action novels and enjoy science fiction then this mash-up could well be the book for you!” —The Eloquent Page
“Justin Richards has perfectly captured a sepia-toned world of wax-sealed envelopes, typewritten orders and Nazi supernatural conspiracies...The narrative quickly moves from a pastiche of a Jones-style archeological dig to a complex spy thriller.” —Starburst Magazine, 9 out of 10 stars
