“Laugh-out-loud-on-the-bus funny.” – Ben Aaronovitch, author of the Rivers of London series
“One of the funniest writers in Britain.” – John Lawton, author of the Inspector Troy and Joe Wilderness series
“A dark, funny look at fandom from someone who really knows.” – Jenny Colgan, bestselling author of Meet Me at the Cupcake Café and Do You Remember the First Time?, and writer of six Doctor Who novels
“This is a delight. Nev Fountain’s genre savviness, his sardonic humour and his skill at storytelling come together in a perfect storm of crime-fiction fun.” – Andrew Cartmel, author of the Vinyl Detective and Paperback Sleuth series
“Funny, acerbic, ingenious. Nev Fountain’s The Fan Who Knew Too Much is a witty, twisty murder mystery set amid the egos and eccentrics of sci-fi fandom. Podcasting, conventions, professional fans and unprofessional stars… it’s all here. Shrewdly observed, it’s at once very familiar and yet constantly surprising.” – Simon Guerrier, author of David Whitaker in an Exciting Adventure with Television
“Nev Fountain… revels in sci-fi nerdism, spoofing it and extolling it simultaneously, outrageously… Out of these 21st century oddballs and freaks comes a murder classic.” – John Lawton, author of the Inspector Troy and Joe Wilderness series
“I'm really annoyed with Nev Fountain for writing this book before I had the chance to think of it. People like him, who happen to be hugely talented and funny writers, think they can come up with original and clever ideas just because no-one else has thought of them before. Yes, I admit it's a brilliant, genre-spanning novel that's hard to put down, but is that enough?” – Peter Davison, Doctor Who 1981-1984
“I loved this funny, intriguing, moving, bonkers story. It’s a world I recognise and a must read for any fan of science fiction and beyond.” – Sophie Aldred, Ace in Doctor Who, 1987-1989
“Nev Fountain is a very funny writer. The Fan Who Knew Too Much is a very funny book.” – Simon Brett, author of the Mrs Pargeter, Fethering Village and The Decluttering mysteries
