Editorial Reviews
Editorial Reviews
“Bennett combines horror, science fiction, and alternative history in a slow-burning novel which is both a superb character study of an alienated individual and a critique of heartless capitalism.”
—Guardian (London)
“Richard Poe dives headlong into this shadowy story, narrating at a swift pace with the gritty tone of the period steeped in his voice. The characters are well realized, and each has a clear, distinct sound that helps move the story along…Poe’s inspired reading keeps listeners tuned in.”
—AudioFile
“Bennett does the seemingly impossible here. He’s written an alternate-history novel that measures up in every respect to Philip K. Dick’s masterful The Man in the High Castle…Bennett weaves mystery into this strange but still recognizable world, and the result is one first-class book. Don’t miss it.” —Booklist (starred review)
