|summary=In this hyper-connected world, it is not difficult to conceive of machines that can answer perplexing questions in the blink of an eye, communicate over a vast network or even seemingly outsmart humans. Of course, in the year 1895, such a machine would be viewed with deep suspicion and curiosity; hailed as a miracle, or condemned as the work of dark supernatural forces. James Lovegrove put this idea to the test in his latest Sherlock Holmes adventure, ''The Thinking Engine'', which pits man against machine in the ultimate battle of wits.

|author=C B Calico
|title=Dandelion Angel
|rating=4
|genre=General Fiction
|summary=In her Author's Note, debut novelist C.B. Calico reveals that ''Dandelion Angel'' was inspired by a non-fiction work, ''Understanding the Borderline Mother'' by Christine Ann Lawson. The four mother/daughter relationships in this Germany-set novel – all marked to some extent by dysfunction, physical and/or verbal abuse, and borderline personality disorder – are based on Lawson's metaphorical classifications: the hermit, the queen, the waif, and the witch. Looping back through her four storylines in three complete cycles, Calico shows how mental illness is rooted in childhood experiences and can go on to affect a whole family.
