Wild action on a grand scale spans well-imagined and developed worlds—bold and new with sharply defined differences in both characters and the changed definitions of humanity.” —The Denver Post “Clearly one of the year’s major science fiction novels . . . The book Reynolds’s readers have been waiting for.” —Locus “Political snarking worthy of Graham Greene.” —The San Diego Union-Tribune “Reynolds’ sequel . . . features intense personal drama and large-scale scenes of space warfare. Told with skill and an attention to detail.” —Library Journal “Alastair Reynolds’s work is hard science fiction at its best. Full of suspense, great characters, and science.” —The Olympia (WA) Olympian “A terrific story. Alastair Reynolds is one of the most interesting writers of hard SF today, easily ranking with Greg Benford, Stephen Baxter, and Ken MacLeod.” —SFRA Review “A large, sprawling tale of war, politics, ideology, and alien invasion. Skilled narrative technique and well-developed characters make this a novel most readers will find absorbing.” —Booklist PRAISE FOR CHASM CITY Winner of The British Science Fiction Association’s Award for Best Novel of the Year One of the Best SF Novels of the Year, Locus and Science Fiction Chronicle “Deep, complex, and always more than [it] seems. Reynolds succeeds in the hardest task of good science fiction, creating a new world full of wonder.” —The Denver Post “A tightly written story that spirals inevitably inwards toward its powerful conclusion. [Chasm City] confirms Reynolds as the most exciting space opera writer working today.” —Locus “The best thing that Reynolds has ever done . . . in the end, it’s a joy.” —John Clute, author of Appleseed, coeditor of The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction “A worthy follow-up to Revelation Space. Reynolds transmutes space opera into a noirish, baroque, picaresque mystery tale. Inventiveness and tone are Reynolds’ strong points . . . the novel’s details are consistently startling but convincing in context. Reynolds remains one of the hottest new SF writers around.” —Publishers Weekly “An impressive book. Another step toward what could become a very significant twenty-first-century hard SF career.” —SF Site PRAISE FOR REVELATION SPACE Best Science Fiction Novel of the Year, Chronicle One of the Best First Novels of the Year, Locus “A terrific treat. I was hooked from page one . . . Ferociously intelligent and imbued with a chilling logic—it may really be like this Out There.” —Stephen Baxter, coauthor of The Light of Other Days “Intensely compelling; darkly intelligent; hugely ambitious.” —Paul J. McAuley, author of Ancients of Days “This distant-past/far-future, hard sci-fi tour de force probes a galaxy-wide enigma: Why does spacefaring humanity encounter so few remnants of intelligent life? . . . Clearly intoxicated by cutting-edge scientific research—in bioengineering, space physics, cybernetics—Reynolds spins a ravishingly inventive tale of intrigue . . . Reynolds’s vision of a future dominated by artificial intelligence trembles with the ultimate cold of the dark between the stars.” —Publishers Weekly “An inventive, wide-ranging, fascinating, and exciting space adventure . . . The best first novel I’ve ever read since A Canticle for Lebowitz.” —Don D’Ammassa, Science Fiction Chronicle “A striking first novel. Reynolds is the next writer to watch in the resurrection of the conceptually intelligent space opera.” —Gary Wolfe, Locus “Reynolds does not lack in big ideas . . . awe-inspiring . . . cutting-edge and convincingly rendered.” —SF Site “Top-notch.” —Maxim “Stirring stuff.” —Edge Ace Books by Alastair Reynolds REVELATION SPACE CHASM CITY REDEMPTION ARK ABSOLUTION GAP
