Praise for VIOLENT CENTURY:
'Vintage Lavie, and also I think his most fully accomplished novel yet. If Nietzche had written an X-Men storyline whilst high on mescaline, it might have read something like VIOLENT CENTURY' - Adam Roberts, author of Jack Glass
'A big, ambitious book that manages to deliver' - Glen Mehn
'An elegiac espionage adventure that demands a second reading' - Metro
'Provides an insight into what it takes to be human, and what can happen when we lay that humanity aside. It's a powerful novel, which will no doubt reward rereading' - Sci-Fi bulletin
