I was delighted to discover Mick Herron's riotous Slow Horses series about the black sheep of MI5 -- Nick Cohen * Big Issue * The first of his series about MI5 and a character called Jackson Lamb, one of the great monsters of modern fiction. He's a wonderfully cynical writer and there's a lot of dark humour in it. I'm not clever enough to write this sort of thing -- Bernard Cornwell * Daily Express * I was delighted to discover that this is merely the first in a captivating series -- Christopher Brookmyre * Herald * A funny, stylish, satirical, gripping story * Guardian * The most enjoyable spy novel in years * Mail on Sunday * With his poet's eye for detail, his comic timing and relish for violence, Herron fills a gap that has been yawning ever since Len Deighton retired * Daily Telegraph * Surely among the finest British spy fiction of the past 20 years * Metro * If you read one spy novel this year, read Real Tigers. Better still, read the whole series * Andrew Taylor, The Spectator * Mick Herron is the real deal * Irish Times * A pulsating spy thriller * Daily Express * The finest new crime series this Millennium * Mail on Sunday * Praise for Mick Herron's Jackson Lamb series: * . *
