Review
A rousing tribute to the human spirit. (SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE)
[Robinson is] a rare contemporary writer to earn a reputation on par with earlier masters such as Isaac Asimov or Arthur C. Clarke. (CHICAGO TRIBUNE)
Humanity's first trip to another star is incredibly ambitious, impeccably planned and executed on a grand scale in Aurora. (SPACE.COM)
This is hard SF the way it's mean to be written: technical, scientific, with big ideas and a fully realized society. Robinson is an acknowledged sf master-his Mars trilogy and his stand-alone novel 2312 (2012) were multiple award winners and nominees-and this latest novel is sure to be a big hit with devoted fans of old-school science fiction. (BOOKLIST)
A magnificent piece of writing . . . perhaps his best ever (Guardian)
Another masterpiece of future-building from Robinson . . . compelling drama (Financial Times)
The kind of speculation that he is quite brilliant at . . . Magnificent
(Sunday Times)An accessible novel packed with big ideas, wonders, jeopardy and, at the end, a real emotional punch (SFX)
Aurora is Robinson's best book yet . . . Heart-wrenching, provocative (Scientific American)
The best book I read in 2015 (Cory Doctorow)
