About this title

Review:

Reynolds's second collection contains 14 stories and novellas, ranging from a near-future, character-based exploration of love and quantum reality set in Cardiff, to far-future space operas packed with seat-of-the-pants action and cutting-edge ideas. He's noted for big novels that combine storylines strung out across aeons with mind-blowing cosmological theory, and he's just as successful at presenting these concepts in the more constraining form of the short story. (Eric Brown THE GUARDIAN)

Reynold's is most definitely a writer's writer. He knows how to weld big ideas to real emotions. (Jonathan Wright SFX)

"This is clever stuff, and consistently well realised." (Matt Bielby DEATHRAY)

Book Description:
