Praise for Empire of Time:


“This fast-moving techno-thriller series reads like a reincarnation of Michael Crichton at his best.” - Barnes & Noble SF Blog

“(Includes) some wonderfully Stephen Baxter-like time paradigms and shocks…This is SF of the no-thrills-barred variety” - The Bookbag

Praise for New Pompeii:


“Godfrey’s intricately plotted, tremendously gripping time-travel thriller evokes Michael Crichton at his best” - The Financial Times



Praise for The Synapse Sequence:


“Godfrey seamlessly integrates futuristic hi-tech into a fast-moving narrative and paints a convincing portrait of a woman haunted by past misdemeanours.” - The Guardian on The Synapse Sequence
