Reviews

Adam Roberts is very good at spinning weird crime tales... this is one to watch out for.
*STARBURST*

A witty, bittersweet and near-perfectly executed novel that's possibly Robert's best book to date.
*SFX MAGAZINE*

Written in a witty, playful and almost teasing style, this is an impressive novel of ideas and a moving love story as well as a tense mystery thriller.
