Extraordinary... Horribly, terribly compelling
Alison Flood, Sunday Times
A gripping read... This is a book that will get you thinking – and thanking your lucky stars for a good night's sleep... I loved it
Jenny Green, Sun
Calhoun’s prose is razor sharp, concise yet hauntingly descriptive... I wouldn’t be surprised if Black Moon turns out to be the best debut novel of 2014
Jim Dempsey, Bookmunch
The novel is a heart-stopping quest
Guardian, David Barnett
Calhoun vividly depicts the societal collapse that results when people are no longer able to differentiate dreaming from reality... Skilled and polished
James Lovegrove, Financial Times
Gripping... Terrifying yet terrific
Anita Sethi, Metro
One of those perfectly simple concepts which can be summed up in a sentence. Great fun

Black Moon is the kind of book I envy as a writer, and seek out as a reader -- a novel of ideas wrapped in an gripping, expertly constructed story, full of feeling and intelligence. Kenneth Calhoun has his own distinctive voice, a voice I hope (and expect) to be hearing more from in years to come
Charles Yu, author of Sorry Please Thank You
Calhoun’s epidemic, this new and improved insomnia, sinks us into a world where ‘sleepers’ are the target of violent rage. Here we see the erosion of the everyday ruses that allow us to soldier on, the ugly truths we run from gaining ground. Black Moon is a powerful, beautiful debut.
