Thriller Author
I write thrillers in which people are forced to play by other people’s rules. But, as we all know, rules are made for breaking.

The Catastrophe Test is a fast-moving clever, well-written novella that will only leave you wanting more of Nigel’s writing. Utterly absorbing, this story encompasses a lot, from great premise & plotting to an intriguing central character.

I liked the fast pace and thought it had tones of The Kingsman.

Enthralling. I just carried on reading to end. I have to say I found the first 30 pages of the ‘interview’ challenges mesmerising.

I loved it. I was gripped from the first page. I loved the character of Kennedy. Strong, independent, female lead exacting justice with confidence and style. A modern, updated Equaliser!

A complex thriller full of lots of twists with characters who turn out to be not what you expected.
If you haven't read any NJ Barker this is his best yet and highly recommended.

This is a cracker of a story. It’s like Frankenstein for the modern age. What would happen if you were able to manipulate the cream of academia? ... Definitely in the ‘just one more chapter’ category!
5 star Amazon review
A really well written story that intrigues you from the start and right up to the end.
With well written characters and a plotline that get better and better as the story develops this book is a must read

Loved the easy style of writing. Most of us can imagine our phones having an inordinate and sinister amount of control over us and I think this is why it’s so relatable and believable. No wasted words, no waffle, just a laser- focussed story on an age old dilemma - with the hideous reality of the hold today’s tech can have on us.
