Award-winning author Simon Morden joins Gollancz with a stunning SF quest across a vast world that mirrors every London ever built. Instead of fire, there was water. A wave slapped through the open doorway, and a gust of wind blew into the smoke-filled corridor, dragging a spiral of soot outwards and away. MARY. One slip away from prison, fighting to build herself a future from nothing. DALIP. The gentle son of a warrior tradition. A young man who must fight for independence from his family. STANISLAV.

Reviews for Down Station (#1 Down)

It's the character's experiences that make this a fresh take on the cut off from civilisation subgenre . . . we're drawn in by their responses to this world (DOWN STATION review) - SFX Once again Simon Morden takes the fantasy genre and moulds it wonderfully . . . What makes Down Station so great is the immaculate pacing and the way character shapes fate for each of the well-drawn main characters - The Sun There are horrors that surprise as well as moments of wonder. The story is patient, and every sequence is both a physical battle and philosophical teaching that merge with well-placed hooks (DOWN STATION review) - Sci-Fi Now This is a very fast-paced book, with intense moments of danger as well as being full of wonder. There are so many things to discover in Down not only geographically but historically . . . Morden has written a book full of mysteries that are just waiting to be discovered (DOWN STATION review) - Fantasy Book Review
