Reviews

""Roll over, George Orwell: This post-apocalyptic dystopia makes Airstrip One look like a summer camp. . . A richly detailed evocation of a grim future that is, sadly, absolutely believable."" --Kirkus Reviews (starred review) ""Nayler's twisting, turning political thriller has spectacular surprises, grounded by realistic, complex characters who are determined to change their world, however hopeless it may seem. A bold, epic sf story and an inspiring tale about taking down all forms of authoritarianism."" --Booklist (starred review) ""Nayler blends quantum theory and gulag history . . . The scene-setting is on point . . . Nayler's writerly bravado impresses."" --Publishers Weekly
