BOOK REVIEWS

some critics’ and readers’ comments about my books ...

Far Point:

“An interesting yarn, a different perspective and for the first time , perhaps, an engineer at the centre of the action”. Measurement and Control Vol 41/6, July 2008

“... Manages to weave the complexities of process systems into the plot without making your eyes glaze over, and paints an evocative picture of life as an engineer working in far-flung places,neatly contrasting the excitement of new places with the damage that prolonged absence can cause to relationships back home ...  A recommended read for the summer holidays” - Professional Engineer, 31 May 2006.

Racy and believable” - The Engineering Media Awards Judges.



The Darkfall Switch

“Its  a great story with a totally plausible plot.  The recent revelations about supposed external intervention into power station control systems of foreign nation states give it an really topical touch.” - GP

“a cracker! Being an engineer I guessed where it was going, but that didn’t spoil it at all. ...  a masterpiece, Thanks for the yarn, I thoroughly enjoyed it.” -  DN

“I will never look at power stations ....  in the same way again!! ES

“Having read and enjoyed David Lindsley's first book, ‘Far Point’, I was keen to read his next book, ‘The Darkfall Switch’. I was not disappointed: it was an excellent follow-up to ‘Far Point’. Although an engineer by profession, David was able to relay the problem presented to the main character, Dan Foster, in layman's terms and, coupled with the intrigue, the scene was set for a really good read.” BP
