I'm glad you're enjoying it - it's hard to tell when you're the one writing in the first place!

Thanks :-)

Got to say that chapter 15 was a cracker! reading this while reading a Matherw Riely plus some non-fiction, and its really getting a pace, in some ways it reminds me of Sagans Contact as well. Keep up the good work.

Thank you very much for saying :-)

That's high praise indeed - I hope the rest of the book matches your expectations!

I just discovered this thread and downloaded Noah's Ark. I'll read it when I'm offshore, which starts this afternoon. Thanks.

Might see if I can down load the new novel too.

Thank you, I hope you enjoy it. The new one's only up in blog form at the moment, and I haven't uploaded all the chapters yet, but I do think it's better than Noah's Ark.

I managed to read the first four chapters before I had to leave the hotel but I can access it on the ship too. It is looking pretty good so far, suspense is building.....

Noah's Ark or Vessel? I hope the rest doesn't disappoint!

Vessel.

I've downloaded Noah's Ark already and will peruse it later.

Just have to finish 'Rose Of Singapore' before I move on.

I can email you the whole manuscript for Vessel if you'd like? The blog is incomplete so far.

Hey, I just finished Vessel yesterday. Pretty damn good read actually. The suspense was pretty good for the first 3/4 of the book, while the plot was coming together and it kept coming back to this claustrophobic trapped-in-space feeling. It did seem to slow a bit towards the end but then there was an interesting twist (or two) in the tail right then.

I haven't done a lot of reading for a while, started watching TV series on my iPad, but I couldn't put this one down once I'd started.

A great read all in all. Cheers.

I'm glad (relieved even!) that you enjoyed it. Thank you for taking the time to read it. How was it in terms of writing style and characterisation? Did it read well, and did the characters feel believable? Those are two issues I had with Noah's Ark that I've tried hard to improve for Vessel.

Thanks again.

The menu doesn't show on the right on the iPad, which meant I had a lot of scrolling down to get to the start.

Having read NA before, I know it will be worth it tho

I know, and I can't figure out a way round it

A quick fix: if you search 'prologue' in the bar at the top and pick the result from the page, it'll take you right to the beginning. Works for chapter 1, 2 etc. Alternatively, I can email you the full manuscript.

Thank you, and I hope you enjoy it.

That's what I did

Upto 4, hooked, again!

If I didn't have an interview, I'd finish it today I think

I'm glad you're enjoying it

All the chapters aren't up on the blog yet, so let me know if you want the full MS so you can read the ending.

And good luck on your interview!!!
