What They're Saying
Critics Review
“Like Houellebecq, Dantec takes his inspiration from both high and low brow culture; he is the sort of writer who cites Sun Tzu’s Art of War and the Stooges’ ‘Search and Destroy’ with equal facility.”—New York Times

“[Dantec is] France’s reigning master of cyberpunk.”—Booklist
