With Steve Roach you know you'll never read another story like his. His work has a way of fixing itself in your mind forever. These stories are often not a comfortable read but if you want your ideas stretched and challenged, have a go. Highly recommended." Ignite, Amazon Reviewer All That Will Be Lost includes the following: The Whaler Something terrible lurks in the ocean, even more formidable than Grice, the most insane of whaling captains.

But the pile isn't going down without a fight. A Selection of Reviews for Stories in This Book: "A Sublime Work of Fiction. The characters are richly defined, the setting is beautifully atmospheric and the action is thrilling. And to top it all off, it ends with a chuckle.

The author definitely has talent." Amazon UK review for 'The Farda' "Another corker from Steve Roach. Amazing, thought provoking, scary stuff. Timeless - tackles our basic human insecurities.
