Reviews
A pacey traditionally styled adventure yarn in which the reader can revel . . . Hamilton doesn’t mess about . . . the story races ahead with verve and flairStarburst
The plotting is tight and ingeniousInterzone
Hamilton appears as a full-fledged SF technician, able to manage the demands of the genre without working up a sweatLocus
A stunning new debut novel . . . possibly the best since Bester, incorporating future predictions of climate, social, social, business, and political behaviour, completing this with hard science, believable scenarios, excellently balanced characters, and a good well-told story. What more do you want? Not to be missedCritical Wave
