"Thoroughly enjoyed a reading the 'Loner'..a true glimpse back into the life and times of students in the sixty's..a must for avid readers wanting a walk back down memory lane"- Gill Pycock, Ryton, North Yorks

"This was an evocative read, bringing alive 60's Liverpool. We had a different perspective from many in this genre, using the main character, Mark, from a public school background. This sensitively illustrated the mix, of educational and personal, advantages and disadvantages that have influence on many teenage and young adult lives. Fiona and Susan, the posh Liverpool girls, were well described - part of the 'in-crowd'and always wearing the right gear. I did not dwell on the pot-holing sections too much, as the Simpson's Pot 'slit squeeze' and 'primrose path' descriptions I found quite scary!" - Mary Rignall, Wigan.

"An interesting insight into clinical anxiety, and how to overcome it - should be an inspiration for many" - Dr. Kevin Pavey, Longridge, Lancs.
