Excellent overview, thanks @bookyvikki !!
Replying to @bookyvikki
Just finished another cracking dystopian thriller. Clones! Fife explodes! Stats! The Field! A gang of 90s nostalgic bampots! A man-baby technocratic despot! And a terrifying new mode of transport. Satirical, emotional and gripping.

'The expectations raised by Daniel Shand’s first two novels are rewarded magnificently by this surprisingly affecting dystopian satire' heraldscotland.com/news/2012… We couldn't agree more - thanks @heraldscotland for this great review of @danshand's new novel MODEL CITIZENS, out now.

Submitted a short story to a contest a few days ago. Just realised I accidentally stole its title from one of the best-loved short stories of all time...

"They form a circle with the traveller in the middle. He revolves slowly, facing them all: their hands clapping, their eyes watching him expectantly. What else can he do but dance?" @danshand's darkly comic story, from Gutter #23, is now up on our blog! guttermag.co.uk/blog/twist-a…

A Model Citizen arrives at @CorsairBooks - Daniel Shand (@danshand)'s future-set novel is 'an unsettling, all-too-plausible vision of where our world might be headed' bookbrunch.co.uk/page/articl… (£)
Daniel Shand retweeted
In 'Twist and Shout' there's a fine line between dancing and madness, and @danshand jigs straight over that line and off into the sunset. Can't tell you more without spoiling this gem of a story. You'll just have to pick up a copy and see for yourself. guttermag.co.uk/subscribe
