What critics have said about the author

“Moore’s a real writer and one to watch.”
—Publisher’s Weekly

“Moore’s noir thrillers and literary fiction—like Graham Greene, he alternates between ‘entertainment’ and serious novels—are subtle and compelling evocations
of a part of the world rarely seen through our eyes.”
—Macleans

“One of Moore’s greatest strengths . . . is his knowledge of Southeast Asian history.”
—Newsweek

“Christopher G. Moore is one of the world’s most popular and bestselling writers”
—January Magazine

“The Hemingway of Bangkok.”
—The Globe and Mail

“The most important recreator of Thailand for a Western audience.”
—Vancouver Sun

“Moore’s work doesn’t flinch from cultural detail or complex social analysis.
He takes chances, lots of them. ”
—International Herald Tribune

“Moore is a marvelous and inventive writer who is able to combine literary merit
with good old genre fiction.”
—Georgia Straight

“Moore might be described as W. Somerset Maugham with a bit of Elmore Leonard
and Mickey Spillane thrown in for good measure.”
—The Japan Times

“If you read only one expat writer for a flavour of Southeast Asia, read Christopher G. Moore.”
—The Daily Yomiuri

“Moore captures the bewitching spirit and rice-cooker passions of Southeast Asia.”
—The National Post

“Moore is a rare writer who is able to meticulously dramatize the complex wiring of the human condition and simultaneously reveal the geopolitical undercurrents while maintaining a skillful control of his stories. Moore is a true connoisseur of Southeast Asia, a man of experience beyond the narrow bounds of culture.”
—Thriller Magazine (Italy)

“To paraphrase Graham Greene in another context, Moore is our man in Bangkok.”
—Bangkok Post

“Acclaimed as one of the best contemporary foreign writers in Thailand. ”
—Thailand Tatler

“Not only is Bangkok-based author Christopher Moore one of the most prolific novelists in town, he’s also one of most read.”
—The Nation

“What is outstanding in the works of Christopher G. Moore is his in depth comprehension of what psychiatrist Carl Jung labeled the collective unconscious, as it applies to Thai motivation, thinking and action. Moore understands the Thais better than many understand themselves.”
—Bangkok Post

“Relishing another Christopher G. Moore novel is like receiving essential nutrients for a healthier, safer life in Thailand. Insights into the human condition …reveal us to ourselves painfully clearly but as balanced as a sweet and sour Thai dish.”
—Richard Ravensdale, Pattaya People
