Reviews

'Baxter handles a complex and gripping plot with his customary aplomb . . . The ending will blow your mind. Buy Titan, read it - and then go out and buy everything else that Baxter has ever written' New Scientist 'This is a tale of equivalent scope to 2001, while the visions of Titan life have that sense of Clarke-style cosmic sorrow' SFX 'A plausible tale of America's last gasp at interplanetary exploration . . . Stephen Baxter proves what a cosmic thinker he is' Washington Post Book World
