Critics Review
“Stross’s work offers a potent reminder of why short stories used to be the preferred delivery method for science fiction.” - The A.V. Club
“With such breathtakingly imaginative novels as Accelerando and the Nebula-nominated Saturn’s Children, [Charles] Stross has proven his mettle as a leading speculative-fiction innovator. Yet his new short-story collection showcases not only his visionary prowess but also his ability to enthrall with plain good storytelling.”--Booklist
”[A] lively collection.“- DISCOVER
