brutal, and brilliant political adventure --Booklist Scalzi
continues to be almost insufferably good at his brand of fun but
think-y sci-fi adventure. --Kirkus Reviews Praise for John
Scalzi
"As much as Scalzi has the scientific creativity of Michael
Crichton, he also has the procedural chops of a Stephen J. Cannell
to craft a whodunit with buddy-cop charm and suspects aplenty-most
of them in someone else's body."-- --USA Today on Lock In If anyone
stands at the core of the American science fiction tradition at the
moment, it is Scalzi. --The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction, Third
Edition "Plenty of action, great character development, vivid and
believable world-building, and a thought-provoking examination of
disability culture and politics. . . . Yet more evidence that
Scalzi is a master at creating appealing commercial fiction."
--Kirkus Reviews (starred review) on Lock In
