Reviews

SFX
This is a book that quite beautifully uses familiar SF tropes to explore how fragile we are as a species - and how robust and clever we can be too. 4.5 stars.

Starburst Magazine
A welcoming entry point into the world of Stephen Baxter's grounded big science fiction. Four out of Five Stars
Financial Times
