Unassumingly sharp and massively under-rated
The AccidentalThe Accidental by Ali Smith

A marvellous, skewed imagination and perfect delivery.
I Could Ride All Day in My Cool Blue TrainI Could Ride All Day in My Cool Blue Train by Peter Hobbs
Buy new: £12.99 / Used from: £0.01
His novel, "The Short Day Dying" was brilliantly conceived. This short story collection shows his range. Definitely one to watch.
Twelve Bar BluesTwelve Bar Blues by Patrick Neate

A justly rewarded minor classic. Funny and bold.
Clear WaterClear Water by Will Ashon
Buy new: £12.99 / Used from: £0.01
A new name, but this debut is packed with potential. Like David Mitchell but darker.
The Fahrenheit TwinsThe Fahrenheit Twins by Michel Faber

I think he's actually Australian but he lives here, so...
