But what they receive in return is glorious indeed - Starburst MagazineAn intriguing tale of war, internecine politics and ancient technologies [GLORIOUS ANGELS review] - The Financial TimesThe work of a smart and sexy novelist having smart and sexy fun [KEEPING IT REAL review] - LocusIt’s a slow-burner of a novel, beautifully written, and Robson drip-feeds the world-building and the various plot-strands at a stately pace that picks up to become a taut thriller swimming in high concepts [GLORIOUS ANGELS] - IndependentAbout The Author
