Review:
“Wildly, savagely funny... This book makes me furious. It makes me dizzy. It makes me roar... this book should be SEEN, it should be READ, it is IMPORTANT.” (Russell T Davies)
“Haterz is horribly accurate about the way we live now, and proves that good liberals make the best (and funniest) serial killers. The jokes are smart,the plotting is vicious and the story will shame anyone who’s spent too much time faffing on Facebook. Mr Goss has crafted the first truly mean-spirited internet psycho-satire.” (Christopher Fowler, author of the Bryant and May books)
“James Goss is dangerous. His work makes you laugh one moment then, just as he’s weakened your defenses, he attacks with a killing blow.” (Guy Adams, author of The Clown Service)
“If you’ve ever written anything unwise on the Internet or felt that social media is just too dominant in our lives, this will appeal to you.Partially an angry polemic against the way technology has shaped our worldview,but mostly a very clever social satire, Haterz is a technological thriller that actually understands how the World Wide Web has changed people. Funny, clever and shocking, this book, somewhat ironically,deserves to go viral.” (Starburst Magazine)
