Age Range: Adult. Overview. This three-book paperback collection brings together Nick Harkaway's most acclaimed novels in one unmissable bundle. From the Cold War intrigue of Karla's Choice, set in the world of John le Carré's George Smiley, to the genre-bending brilliance of The Gone-Away World and the clockwork thriller Angelmaker, this set showcases a writer celebrated for razor-sharp wit, inventive plotting and deep emotional intelligence. A superb introduction or a treat for existing fans.. About the Books. Karla's Choice is set in spring 1963, in the missing decade between two of John le Carré's most iconic Smiley novels. George Smiley has left the Circus for a quieter life, but a Russian defector and a missing man draw him back into a dangerous game of Cold War espionage. Written by le Carré's son, it is a note-perfect return to Smiley's world.. The Gone-Away World is Harkaway's genre-defying debut: a post-apocalyptic adventure in which the Jorgmund Pipe, the fragile backbone holding the ruined world together, bursts into flame. Gonzo Lubitsch and his wry, unnamed best friend are sent to fight the blaze, uncovering corporate conspiracy and their own shared past along the way. Equal parts dark comedy, speculative fiction and philosophical adventure, it remains a cult favourite.. Angelmaker follows Joe Spork, a mild-mannered clockmaker's son, and Edie Banister, a nonagenarian former superspy, after Joe unwittingly activates a doomsday device disguised as a clockwork toy. Shortlisted for the Arthur C. Clarke Award, it blends steampunk invention, tender character work and pulse-quickening suspense into one of Harkaway's most beloved novels.. Three acclaimed novels from a genuinely original voice in modern fiction. Spans espionage, post-apocalyptic adventure and steampunk thriller in one set. Excellent value for building a contemporary fiction collection. A thoughtful gift for fans of John le Carré, speculative fiction or literary thrillers. Brand new paperback copies, ready to read straight out of the box. About the Author. Nick Harkaway is the acclaimed author of Gnomon, The Gone-Away World, Angelmaker, Tigerman, Titanium Noir and Karla's Choice. The son of John le Carré, he brings a unique insight into his father's work alongside his own inventive, morally complex storytelling. He lives in London with his wife and two children.. Why You'll Love This Collection. Three standout novels, one purchase: sharp writing, big ideas and unforgettable characters, from Cold War spies to clockwork saboteurs. A brilliant gift for any adult fiction fan.. Please Note: Please note the UK ISBNs and cover editions may vary slightly from the images shown, as these reflect the current UK print run.
