Recensioner i media

Praise for 'Dying Light': 'COLD GRANITE was a superb debut and DYING LIGHT is a wonderfully gripping and grim second outing for Logan McRae. Fierce, unflinching and shot through with the blackest of humour; this is crime fiction of the highest order by a writer whose dark star is most definitely on the rise.' Mark Billingham 'Another brilliant, riveting police procedural. I'm green with envy!' R D Wingfield 'The story is violent and bloody; some of the crimes are vicious and MacBride doesn't hold back on the details. But there is plenty of dark humour, and a warmth to the portrayal of the police officers which lightens an otherwise grim tale by this very talented writer.' Susanna Yager, Sunday Telegraph Praise for 'Cold Granite': "Cold Granite" is a powerful reminder that the best contemporary crime fiction is coming out of Scotland. Ferocious and funny, this is Tartan Noir at its best.' Val McDermid 'A riveting and gruesome debut.' Telegraph 'The latest recruit to the splendid tartan army of crime writers is Stuart MacBride, and he appears with all guns blazing ! this intelligent, exciting police procedural should make the leading writers of the genre start looking over their shoulders.' Sunday Telegraph 'Stuart MacBride goes straight for the jugular with a tight, thrilling novel.' Glasgow Herald Praise for 'Cold Granite': 'MacBride is a confident writer ! does a good line in black humour and has a nose for the macabre. A promising debut.' Scotsman 'An impressive debut ! an edge-of-your-seat page-turner.' Publishers Weekly 'A cracking new writer on the crime scene who hooks you from the first page and never lets you go. The action is ferocious and the pace unrelenting, and yet MacBride manages injections of black humour.' Northern Echo
