Description:
Praise for Terminal World "Ingenuous and vivid settings...exotic scenery, special effects, set pieces--it's going to take some fancy dancing for the author to top this one!"-- Locus "It might be hard to understand how Alastair Reynolds, known for his imaginative galaxy-spanning space operas, would fare in other genres of science fiction like steampunk. Terminal World might be as close as you get to finding out."--SF Signal "A wildly imaginative genre stretcher. [Reynolds] tells his tale with such verve that you just keep turning the pages."-- Financial Times "Hairsbreadth escapes, gutsy fight scenes, unfeasible coincidences throughout the rest of the novel and one or two moments where Reynolds does achieve an authentic sense of wonder."--SF Site "A rousing adventure in a wildly original setting."-- The Guardian (UK) "The pages are filled with alarums and adventures, reversals, betrayal and frightening experiences--as many as one would hope for from a planetary romance. Quillon builds genuine relationships after leaving Spearpoint [and] as he is able to acknowledge his own nature, overcomes default hatred of his type and becomes a valued member of his society."--Strange Horizons "An intellectual balancing act...airborne battles...plenty of action, too. It's almost the most convincing steampunk novel you'll ever read."--SFX
