Reviews for Savage Moon

‘An atmospheric, psychologically astute and emotionally literate study of the nature of predator and prey, with an unexpected ending.’
The Guardian

‘An intricate plot is enhanced by good writing and human sympathy. Highly recommended.’
Literary Review

‘Simms weaves an ingenious and surprising thriller with a big twist in the tale.’
Book Club Associates

‘The plot has more twists and turns than a rollercoaster on Blackpool Pleasure Beach…fast-paced, involving, tense and well-written.’
Shots Magazine

 ‘What made this stand out…was the plot line of political injustice that has one sympathising for the murderer.’
Waterstone’s

‘Savage Moon is as powerful and unnerving a novel as is available.’

‘There are some neat twists and not a few red herrings…towards the end I simply couldn’t turn the pages
fast enough to find out what happened next. Superb.’
Bookbag

'Satisfying and wonderfully atmospheric with some beautifully nuanced observations…a winner.'
Tangled Web

‘Chris Simms has never shown any reluctance to chill the blood of the reader, and that’s very much on the cards here as the tension is screwed down ever tighter.’
Good Book Guide

A reader’s thoughts

If you find the views of ordinary readers just as important as the opinions of professional reviewers, here is an email I received. I swear by my writing hand that it’s genuine. If you have a glowing report too, I give signed hardbacks and £50 compliments slips to any that I print. (That’s a joke.)

Just finished Savage Moon, what an excellent topic to go along with a superb book.
