Critical Reviews

"A cornucopia of notions and neat writing."--The San Diego Union-Tribune"Makes hallucinogens obsolete."--Cory Doctorow

"Stross sizzles with ideas...whimsical and funny as well as challenging and thoughtful."--The Denver Post

"Like Bruce Sterling or William Gibson at their best, Stross surfs a wave of ideas and information that seems always on the brink of collapsing into incomprehensibility, but never does--a careening plunge through strangeness in which every page contains something to mess with your head."--SF Site
