Critics Review
A great big sprawling enjoyable science fiction read. Does what it says on the tin. I finally closed it with a sense of satisfaction
A great big sprawling enjoyable science fiction read. Does what it says on the tin. I finally closed it with a sense of satisfaction – Neal Asher, author of Weaponized
Complex world-building, harrowing back-story and good payoffs – Sunday Telegraph
The author controls a cast numbering more than fifty, multiple complex plot lines, speculation on the science of wormhole technology and cloning, and arrives at a dénouement that is far more than just the resolution of a murder mystery – Guardian
Hamilton’s latest standalone tale is a whopper – SFX
We’ve said it before, but few SF writers handle BIG books with Hamilton’s aplomb – SFX
This sci-fi mystery novel is ideal for fans of both genres and may well lure reluctant mystery buffs to explore sci-fi or send sci-fi buffs towards some great detective novels … a doozy of a story that handles both genres with satisfying results – Michael Glitz, Huffington Post
Hamilton has once again shown why he is one of the best writers in the field today … if you want a stand-alone sci-fi novel to get lost in, you can’t go wrong with Great North Road – Walker of Worlds
