“This is largely what SF is all about: presenting plausible themes to suggest that things such as invisibility, Jekyll & Hyde potions, creation of Frankenstein monsters, the rebirth of dinosaurs, et al, might be possible. SF is an explorative genre, and here Paul Collins explores” JACK WODHAMS.

“These stories may begin softly-softly but they carry a sting in the tail” George Turner

“Australia is not the science fiction capital of the world; in fact we are probably not even on the map. This unfortunate fact would change if we could produce more writers like Paul Collins” AUSTRALIAN BOOK REVIEW
