I still love the logo design for my books and even though I'm proud of the English editions, the German books are the ones that get me excited the most.
It's just a pity I can't read German very well...

The Secret War
What they said about The Secret War...
- "...Curran has an engaging style which has produced a very entertaining book…Curran's talent is in ascension, and I for one cannot wait to read the sequel…" Prism - newsletter of the British Fantasy Society
- "...its gripping and above all it’s a tale that will suck the reader in from the first page… Definitely an author to watch although I wouldn’t leave this offering on the shelf for long, one of our tips to pick up and get into before the masses learn of them." Falcata Times
- "...Just the sort of book I love, a historical novel shot through with the elements of the fantastic to pump up the action and the scope." Rick Kleffel's Agony Column
- "The Secret War is great fun and a terrific read, an interesting take on a familiar idea that falls somewhere between epic fantasy and boys-own adventure it’s a heady mix that’s well worth investigating." The Disgruntled Writer
- "Well written, especially for a first novel, the early-19th-century setting is realised in grimy detail and the battle scenes are very graphically described." Otago Daily Times
- "Worth the read if you like your warfare bloody and brutal..." Graeme's Fantasy Book Review
- “Curran has produced a debut novel that’s tremendous fun…” Historical Novels Review
- “Impressive for any writer, but considering this was his debut novel, this makes it even more worthy of note…” The Bookbag
- “It's well written and well paced with the mud & blood of battle coming through strongly without obsessing over the gore. …it's an excellent read and thoroughly absorbing.” Un:Bound
- “The Secret War is well written and an easy page-turner…” Chronicles

The Hoard of Mhorrer
What they said about The Hoard of Mhorrer
- "Curran's is certainly a name worth looking out for, on the evidence so far and I, for one, am keen to see where things go from here..." The Bookbag
- "Well balanced, beautifully paced and extremely entertaining , it's a satisfying read." Un:Bound
- “Curran is obviously an exciting new talent in the science-fiction and fantasy scene… his prose is crisp and well-formed, moving at a decent enough pace to sustain momentum during the quieter moments, exploding into action scenes that have a visceral sense of momentum about them.” Sci-Fi Now Magazine
- “…exactly the kind of thing that invites labelling by fusion: Sharpe-meets-Dracula, Napoleon-meets-Warhammer…The Hoard of Mhorrer will appeal to many.” Deathray Magazine
