New Model Army by Adam Roberts

New Model Army by Adam Roberts

Adam Roberts' new novel is a terrifying vision of a near future war - a civil war that tears the UK apart as new technologies allow the worlds first truly democratic army to take on the British army and wrest control from the powers that be. Taking advances in modern communication and the new eagerness for power from the bottom upwards Adam Roberts has produced a novel that is at once an exciting war novel and a philosophical examination of war and democracy. It shows one of the UKs most exciting and innovative literary voices working at the height of his powers and investing SF with literary significance that is its due.

Adam Roberts is Professor of 19th-century Literature at London University. His first novel, SALT was shortlisted for the ARTHUR C. CLARKE AWARD, as was his novel GRADISIL. His novel SWIFTLY was shortlisted for a SIDEWISE AWARD. He has also published a number of academic works on both 19th-century poetry and SF, and is a regular contributer on SF for the BBC and various online venues.
