What They're Saying
Critics Review
‘Stunningly assured, inventive and intelligent. THE STAR FRACTION is richly readable and riddled with accuracies. The book takes near future fiction into cyberian places it hasn’t dared go before. SF bibliographies better take note; grab a first edition now before they disappear; this man is going to be a major writer.’ Iain M. Banks
‘He’s clever, witty, and his future has just the right grainy feel to it’ SFX‘Prose sleek and fast as the technology it describes watch this man go global’ Peter F. Hamilton‘An immensely exciting SF adventure The Star Fraction is an auspicious debut’ STARBURST‘Formidably intelligent and extraordinarily original’ NEW YORK REVIEW OF SCIENCE FICTION‘No reservations about the complex, heady science fiction writing of Ken MacLeod- a striking new voice by any standards.’ NORTH LONDON NEWS‘Wonderfully engaging MacLeod displays a natural ease in his writing that is the sign of a natural novelist.’ EXPRESS MAGAZINE‘Frenetic and witty.’ SCOTLAND ON SUNDAYAbout The Author
