3.9 out of 5 stars 13 ratings
When a ship crash-lands on a faraway planet the crew needs local help. Unfortunately, the natives are a million years ahead of us. Ignored, the crew has to find a way to get attention.

Bringing back a sense of discovery and wonder to science fiction.

“I’ve always found Geoff’s work both inspirational and brilliant. I know that whenever I pick up one of his works I’m in for a damned good read. For those who’ve never read any of his works before, welcome to the Geoff Nelder club.”
—Mark Iles, author of THE DARKENING STARS series.

Jon Courtenay Grimwood: FELAHEEN, PASHAZADE AND END OF THE WORLD BLUES - “Geoff Nelder inhabits science fiction just as other people inhabit their clothes.”

    5.0 out of 5 stars Flying Crooked, predictably unpredictable.

    Just as the Cabbage White’s flight is unpredictable, so the quirky beginnings of Suppose We in Geoff’s newest release. I’m looking forward to the continuation of the crooked flights of the series that we suppose we CAN. (As in CANDID)

    3.0 out of 5 stars Intriguing!

    This was definitely something unlike anything I’be read so far this year. Nelder is clearly a talented author with a fantastic sense of creativity.

    Yet, for some reason, I wasn’t as hooked as I wanted to be. Often, the story dragged on, and a lot of it went over my head. That is definitely a personal issue!

    I’m sure in the right hands, this book will be well loved. It just isn’t for my tastes!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Science Fiction as it should be...
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 26, 2019

    Geoff Nelder is one of those unsung creatives in science fiction. And with this book, his imagination is coming into its own.

    Like any work of such an innovative nature, it has to first engage in the ordinary (for science fiction that is) before it can move you into that very unique yet coherent world. He does this so subtly that you don't notice until you are thoroughly enjoying the new.

    So it starts with a ship carrying four people to a new world. Their journey has lasted a thousand years in hibernation. And they end up having to crash land. An ordinary science fiction trope - so far. And that is where the ordinariness ends. The planet's 'lifeforms' are an interesting mixture, with even more interesting consequences.

    But an author cannot take a reader into this amount of unusualness without writing in engaging way, and this is exactly what Geoff has done, in spades. His characters are very relatable, his descriptions entrancing and his story pace an enjoyable canter.

    A word about the science here - not all of it is explained, but given that the point of view characters can't explain it, that is not surprising. The techies and scientists among you will realise that what Geoff has worked up might really be possible.

    I have known Geoff's other works and am not surprised at the quality of this book. What does surprise me is that a top-notch publisher has not taken up publishing 'Suppose We'.

    This is a cracking story, showing lots of imagination. Sci- Fi fans will not be disappointed by this latest effort by Geoff Nelder. Looking forward to the next book in The Flying Crooked series.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Rich descriptions and vivid imagery
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 5, 2019

    Suppose We is full of rich descriptions and vivid imagery that is a joy to read. The description of the alien world, including its dangers, bring it to life in a way that allows the reader to imagine being there. The characters are well drawn and as the story unwinds, the reader gradually learns more about the planet that they are on. I enjoyed this book immensely and will certainly read the sequel.
