I was simply blown away by the style, smarts and creativity of Nick Harkaway. Has he truly only written one previous book? Angelmaker absorbs you into various secret worlds, of different times simultaneously, that are brought to life with incredible character development. This story is fabulous, and I again and again found myself in awe of Mr. Harkaway's knowledge and creativity. Enjoy the amazing journey of Joe Spork, his family, layered associates and connections. There is not another book like this. Nick...please write something else soon!!!

I stumbled onto Nick Harkaway when the iTunes bookstore recommended him. I read "Angelmaker" with bliss, loving not just the plot and the wit but the language, too. (One of those books where sometimes you have to stop and admire how nicely a paragraph or thought is put together.) Among other lures, Angelmaker features the unsuspected world below London's streets... as well as flash backs into the life of a sassy, daring super spy girl agent. What an incredible, edible yarn - funny, smart, exciting, wistful, and fulfilling (the ending lives up to the bravura beginning, and YOU know how rare that is). Then I downloaded the only two other books Harkaway has written, and inhaled them as quickly as I could... So now what do I read? iTunes isn't giving me any of those "People who liked this also bought..." suggestions, probably because there aren't any other books like this one. How annoying; I want more, and as far as I can tell, now all I can do is sit here tapping my toe impatiently while waiting for some stranger to WRITE FASTER.

A strange and fascinating voyage. Absolutely original and witty. Read it slowly it's over too soon. Thanks To a wonderful author
