"Re: Cruel World" Thank you! It was a mistake in the conversion of the preview, that showed the pages at the wrong size. I've fixed the preview now. I'm glad you enjoyed the excerpt. I have also altered the paragraphs to be better formatted, including justification and paragraph indentation.
"Hello John" This is your dad. About time I told you what I thought of it. Mmmmmm ... OK. Yup. It will do. By the way. Back from the wedding. Like the lullbabies a lot. Your sister sends her love.
"John Morgan's first novel" I am not a fantasy or doomsday book fan, but this first chapter is very promising and gripping. Suspect bit of an Electra complex going on in young Maddy. Just slightly in the tradition of Ben Elton, with a rabid tinge.
"Cruel World" This book is compulsive reading - I finished it in two sittings. Well, in two bathtimes. It has a refreshing and original mixture of evilly comic scenes, twisted rom-com, weird (and, frankly, nuts) end-of-the-world stuff that really ought to be filmed by that bloke off Monty Python, some great dialogue from believable characters that make you want to alternately hug them and slap them in the teeth with a salmon and an ending that makes you go "Whaaaat?!?!"
