Reviews

More intricate, more plausible, more significant than any debut I can recall
*Cory Doctorow*

The kind of science fiction that makes me excited all over again about what science fiction can do
*Jo Walton*

Thought-provoking, disturbing, occasionally perverted, and always entertaining. Worldbuilding at its richest
*Kirkus Reviews*

Incredibly ambitious and groundbreaking... Palmer writes gloriously lush prose stuffed with asides, allusions and nods to the reader'
*Guardian*

Admirable in its scope and attention to detail... A book thats quirky and makes you think'
*Concatenation*

A powerful, beautifully written novel... It is a mystery, historic document, social commentary and futuristic science fiction all combined to make an excellent novel'
