''Cracking entertainment... Dangerously, deliciously addictive'' Daily Telegraph

''[Raven is] a freak writer, he defies classification. In wilder moments he suggests a loose, lunatic collaboration of Trollope, Ouida and Waugh'' Observer

Enter Alms for Oblivion, Simon Raven''s dazzling cycle of ten novels, all telling separate stories but at the same time linked together by the characters they have in common: schoolboys and businessmen, writers and soldiers, prostitutes and patient wives, actresses and models. In the first four novels Raven''s wayward band of upper-class anti-heroes lurch from debauched parties to rehearsals for nuclear war; from blackmail to murder; from marriage to adultery and back again.

Volume 1: The Rich Pay Late, Friends in Low Places, The Sabre Squadron and Fielding Gray

''There are some people who consider the greatest cycle of twentieth-century novels to be Anthony Powell''s A Dance to the Music of Time. These people are wrong. Widmerpool and his joyless accomplices are as nothing compared to the characters in Simon Raven''s majestic, scurrilous and scabrous Alms for Oblivion cycle'' Guardian
