Praise

‘Exquisite… Not since Philip K. Dick’s Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep have I felt so strongly about where artificial intelligence might lead us. Highly recommended.’
Christina Dalcher, author of VOX

‘Engaging, fast-moving and surprising… The novel gives familiar science fiction themes a fresh and compassionate look, and makes of them something new.’
Ken MacLeod

The Actuality is smart, literary science fiction.’
Ollie Kirrage, Infinite Speculation

‘Written with flair and humanity… mesmerising.’
The Times
