Introspective, lyrical and with a growing sense of menace running under it all * The Times * Praise for Sylvain Neuvel * - * It's fascinating to see how Neuvel weaves together fact and fiction . . . a blast. Seriously clever * SFX * An alt-history with a difference. Traces the true story of the development of rocket science but adds an alien-conspiracy-theory edge in the shape of a fictional team of mother-daughter clones. Along with the problems faced by women trying to change the world (or at least get men to listen to them), they are threatened by a mysterious 'Tracker' who has spent centuries trying to kill them. Good fun * Guardian * A dark and ambitious book. Neuvel is forging ahead * SFX Magazine * Wry narration, wired action . . . Fans of alternate history and intelligent sci-fi will love this * Publishers Weekly * Clever and compelling, it will keep you enthralled until the end -- Robert J. Sawyer, Hugo Award-winning author of The Oppenheimer Alternative * - * There's real cleverness at work here. Mia, bent on getting humanity sufficiently technologically developed so that they can leave Earth, makes some dodgy-sounding moral choices as she works towards humanity's salvation * The Times * Highly crafted and unique * Library Journal *
