Damien Walter's SciF & Fantasy Hunt

A month or so ago Damien Walter (of The Guardian) invited authors to tell him about their books or books by other people as part of his great SciFi and Fantasy hunt. Someone kindly nominated my book, Theatre of Curious Acts (if I remember correctly it was The Bestwick - he shall be suitably thanked). After sifting through 800 or so, Damien has chosen his top five and I'm delighted to say he's included Theatre in the list.

Here's a taster of what he had to say about it...

"The Theatre of Curious Acts by Cate Gardner is a small but beautiful package of mystery and wonder disguised as a novel. Gardner begins her story in the trenches of the first world war, where Daniel Cole is doing his best to hide from the suffering and death around him..."

You can read the rest of his comments and check out the other four books here. This most definitely made my day.

Congrats! You deserve it! I found your story The Binding of Memories in Shimmer magazine and I haven't been able to get it out of my head. I bought a copy of the magazine for my brother and best friend just so they could read it too. You're a great writer and I look forward to catching up on all your works.
