Praise for Mick Herron's Jackson Lamb series: * . * The new spy master * Evening Standard * Jackson Lamb - the most fascinating and irresistible thriller series hero to emerge since Jack Reacher * Sunday Times * As a master of wit, satire, insight . . . Herron is difficult to overpraise * Daily Telegraph * The finest new crime series this Millennium * Mail on Sunday * The best modern British spy series * Daily Express * The John le Carre of our generation * Val McDermid * Mick Herron is the real deal * Irish Times * If you read one spy novel this year, read Real Tigers. Better still, read the whole series * Andrew Taylor, The Spectator * Surely among the finest British spy fiction of the past 20 years * Metro * With his poet's eye for detail, his comic timing and relish for violence, Herron fills a gap that has been yawning ever since Len Deighton retired * Daily Telegraph * The most enjoyable spy novel in years * Mail on Sunday * A funny, stylish, satirical, gripping story * Guardian * I was delighted to discover that this is merely the first in a captivating series * Herald * The first of his series about MI5 and a character called Jackson Lamb, one of the great monsters of modern fiction. He's a wonderfully cynical writer and there's a lot of dark humour in it. I'm not clever enough to write this sort of thing * Daily Express * I was delighted to discover Mick Herron's riotous Slow Horses series about the black sheep of MI5 * Big Issue * For something really gripping, head for Mick Herron's Jackson Lamb series, in which a sidelined spook and his cohorts battle their way back to the centre of a life of espionage. Begin with Slow Horses and enjoy * Observer * Mick Herron's Slow Horses series has all the thrills of John Le Carre or Len Deighton with a black humour * Daily Mail (Scotland) * One of the most consistently enjoyable literary achievements of the past decade * The Times *
