Friday Read

Today we have a special Friday Reads from our author Den Patrick, who is doing an event with Jen Williams in March (details below). We thought it only fitting that The Copper Promise be reviewed by Den in preparation for what promises to be a great event.  The Copper Promise by Jen Williams I first […]

We’ve taken a different tack with our Friday Reads this week, and instead of telling you what we’ve been reading, we thought you might like to know what you could read for a super bargain price. This month, Gollancz  have some brilliant Kindle deals which we thought only fair to let you know about. All […]

I picked up the first of THE LOST FLEET series at Eastercon in 2012. I’d seen the books around for a bit, but for some reason I wanted to read something that was pulpy and fun and my good friend Sam Enthoven recommended it to me. So I bought the first one from, I think, the […]

I’ve been going on a bit of a Michael Scott Rohan reading jag in the last year or so, for no real good reason than I remembered liking his work a lot. I reread the Spiral series (available as Gateway ebooks! Here’s the link to the first one)  first, as when I was unpacking boxes looking for the […]

In celebration of our Discworld announcement this week, we’ve done a round-up of Gollancz’s favourite Terry Pratchett books for our Friday Reads. Enjoy! The Discworld Collector’s Library starts publishing in November, so still a small window to catch up on all your favourite Pratchett works. Enjoy! Darren My favourite Discworld book is still, after all these […]

Today my Friday reads is the brilliant Ace of Skulls. It’s the fourth of the Ketty Jay novels by Chris Wooding, it’s vibrant, it’s fast-paced and it’s wonderful – and if you’ve not been reading the series so far, check out the blog next week, as we have a bit of a Retribution Falls treat […]

So I’m editing the third of AJ Dalton’s fantasy trilogy at the moment (it’s very very good) and, as always, I had a quick skim through the first two books beforehand, to make sure I remembered who everyone was and where they’d been and so on. Now, let’s be honest here – I commissioned the […]

“I am not a copy. I am a story about myself told by an artificial intelligence…” Recently our excellent editor Marcus Gipps acquired the ebook rights to this book. We published the ebook on the 13th of June to coincide with the short film by Shynola Films based on the first chapter. And this seemed […]

It’s time to go over to our Gollancz Geeks! This month we’ve been getting some fantastic reviews of Kristin Cashore’s Bitterblue, the third in her enormously popular trilogy featuring Princess Bitterblue. This week’s review comes from Lipsy, and is also available to view on her fantastic blog along with lots of exciting news and reviews for […]

It’s Friday, which means only one thing: Gollancz Geeks Friday Reads! Every Friday we’ll be sharing a Gollancz Geeks reviews with you. Today’s brilliant Poison review was written by Max Edwards. You can tweet Max @onechaptermore, leave a comment for him on our blog or visit his genre fiction blog, One Chapter More. Have you read Poison? Let us know in the comment […]

It’s the talk of the town… we’re a little late to the game, but The Great Gatsby is still the literary-classic-turned-Baz-Luhrmann-movie du jour, we reckon. So in honour of Fitzgerald, Luhrmann and all that is glittering, Becca and Hannah have shared their thoughts on the novel here.   Hannah Becca has been bouncing around the office […]

Simon’s Friday Read this week is The Gigantic Beard That Was Evil by Stephen Collins.

This week’s Friday Reads were too good to limit to one, so here’s what a few of the Gollancz team will be reading over the long weekend.

This week’s Friday Read is Dead Ever After, the final novel in Charlie Harris’ Sookie Stackhouse series, which came out this week. Through their tears at saying goodbye to Sookie, Gillian and Jen have managed to give you a Friday Read…

Our Friday Reads tribute to Iain [M] Banks.
