"Hull Zero Three is a grand adventure of scientific discovery in
the tradition of "Orphans of the Sky" and "Rendezvous with Rama" --
by turns chilling and touching, it poses challenging questions
about what it means to be human."--Charles Stross
"Hull Zero Three is a lean, mean, supercharged sense-of-wonder
engine."--Alastair Reynolds on Hull Zero Three
"Greg Bear is one contemporary master of the old ways, and in Hull
Zero Three he gives the generation starship theme - crystallized
beautifully by Robert Heinlein in 1941's "Universe" - a vigorous
makeover...."--bn.com
"Greg Bear's voice is a resonant, clear chord of quality binding
some of the best SF of the 20th Century to the short list of
science-savvy, sophisticated, top-notch speculative fiction of the
21st. More than a grace note, Hull Zero Three is a compelling
allegro in the growing symphony of Greg Bear's finest work."--Dan
Simmons
"I loved Hull Zero Three - this book reminds me of why I fell in
love with science fiction in the first place. Searing questions of
humanity, a good old fashioned riddle of a plot, and excellent
conceptualization make Hull Zero Three more than worth the
effort."--thebooksmugglers.com
"Military sci-fi, action and adventure, and a whole lot of
thought-provoking complexity."--San Diego Union-Tribune on War
Dogs
"Not for those who prefer their space opera simple-minded, this
beautifully written tale where nothing is as it seems will please
readers with a well-developed sense of wonder."--Publisher's Weekly
(starred review) on Hull Zero Three
"Packed with adventure and incident...and conveyed with gritty
realism."--Kirkus on War Dogs
"Stuffed with adrenaline-pumping action and mystifying ambiguity,
Bear's series launch is a tempest of rousing SF adventure with a
dash of Peckinpah."--Publishers Weekly on War Dogs
"The heart of the mystery is worthy of Bear in its bravura
extrapolations into far-future science and moral ambiguity...a
testament of faith both in human beings and in something beyond
them, divine or indistinguishable from it, and it seems directed as
much toward the world of today, with all its sinful affections and
deceits, as it is toward the far future."--Locus on Hull Zero Three
