"Vivid, brutal, and thematically rich." -- Booklist, Starred Review
"recalls both William Gibson and Ian McDonald at their very best... clearly one of the finest science fiction novels of the year." -- Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
"astute social commentary in poignant, revelatory prose." -- Publishers Weekly, Best Books of the Year
