I read <i>We See Everything</i> in my usual places, the buses and tunnels of London. It was compelling and terrifying, bringing the horror of bombardment to the streets I was travelling through (and under). This is a wonderful book – it humanises a battle that so many of us ignore and shook me into fearing about where it is all heading.
Patrice Lawrence, author of ORANGEBOY, on WE SEE EVERYTHING
Fast-moving and brave, with lots and lots of heart.
Ahdaf Soueif on WE SEE EVERYTHING
I read <i>We See Everything</i> in three sittings and was gripped throughout, held back tears throughout. The ending is both incredibly moving and politically so smart. This is a really clear-eyed, tightly crafted book and I’m so pleased to have read it. And even more pleased that it will soon be out there in the world.
Omar Robert Hamilton, author of THE CITY ALWAYS WINS on WE SEE EVERYTHING

Philippe Sands, author of EAST WEST STREET on WE SEE EVERYTHING

Unmissable.
Nick Tucker, Books for Keeps, Book of the Year on CONCENTR8
A satire on modern urban life … It is a gritty, compelling eye-opener on the treatment of ADHD.
DAILY TELEGRAPH on CONCENTR8
There is political exposé; there is comedy and one hostage-taker even achieves a kind of tragic-hero status. This might just become a 21st-century YA classic.
JEWISH CHRONICLE on CONCENTR8
<i>Concentr8</i> by William Sutcliffe feels like a realism, though actually it’s a fascinating dystopian satire and a critique of the over-diagnosis of ADHD, the way we treat young people more generally and the power of Big Pharma … A book with a serious mission.
