Trade Review
John Scalzi is the most entertaining, accessible writer working in SF today * Joe Hill *
Gripping and surpassingly original. It's Starship Troopers without the lectures . . . It's funny, it's sad, and it's true * Cory Doctorow *
A fast-paced political thriller laced with observant characterization, great dialogue, and some genuinely original science * Guardian *
Clever dialogue, fast-paced story and strong characters * The Times *
Top-notch. His combat scenes are blood roiling * Washington Post *
Scalzi is one of the slickest writers that SF has ever produced * Wall Street Journal *
Astonishingly proficient * Publishers Weekly (starred review) *
Scalzi's prose harkens back to the Golden Age of science fiction while still remaining fresh and vibrant * Strange Horizons *
