Critics Review

It’s rare to find a writer with sufficient nerve and stamina to write novels that are big enough to justify using words like “revelation” and “redemption”. Reynolds pulls it off - PUBLISHERS WEEKLY

A mastersinger of the Space Opera - THE TIMES

A well-paced, complex story replete with intrigue, invention and an optimism uncommon in contemporary SF - The Guardian
