Martin "This is the future the way it was supposed to be." --- The Wall Street Journal "As close as you'll get to a Hollywood blockbuster in book form." --- io9.com "An excellent space operatic debut in the grand tradition of Peter F. Hamilton." --- Charlie Stross "If you like science fiction with great characters and set in real space, you'll enjoy this one." --- Jo Walton, author of Farthing |
