Fiction. "Tom Bradley's sixth book, FISSION AMONG THE FANATICS, is his most devastating assault yet on conformity culture, academic politics, religion, literary pretension and the all around follies of humankind" - John Ivan Palmer. "Tom Bradley is a writer of truly extravagant gifts . . . It is remarkable to me that anyone who writes at such length could have an ear as fine as his for the rhythms of prose - but every sentence is considered, balanced and felicitous . . . I'd be hard pressed to think of any writer who has Bradley's stamina, his range, his learning, his felicity" - Stephen Goodwin. "I love the contradictions in Bradley's work: the subtlety beneath the rollicking humour; the precision, in his more political work, underlying the scathing tone; and the simplicity of his language throughout" - Val Stevenson.
