Editorial Reviews

“The enjoyment one gets from a Stross novel doesn’t just come from his fascinating characters and plot; it can also be found in his elaborate explanations of the elements that make up his universe. Stross’ second Freyaverse novel is easy to get lost in, with detailed depictions of everything from complex monetary systems to the structure of life on planets made mostly of gas. His world is not only absorbing, but also feels like a hauntingly realistic possibility for the future.” RT Book Reviews (4 stars)
