"What happens when two brilliant scientists write a Science Fiction novel. The answer is normally somthing mediocre at best,but in this case something amazing happened a brilliant book - perhaps too realistic for some and not real enough sci fi for others.
It was worth every ounce of brain power I put in to keep up with the concepts but the important thing was I rooted for the main charachter all the way through
A waring about this review - I may look at this book through rose tinted lenses because I bought it from the long gone best ever specailst book shop - Andromeda in Birmingham (UK)- back when online shopping was a novelty and bookshops had two shelves of Science Fiction one of which was bad TV/ Movie spin off novels."
"intelligent, thought-provoking, farflung scifi novel about -- what else? -- saving the world from imminent catastrophe. contains advanced mathematical and scientific concepts, and a very creative and unusual plot, which make it fun to read. the characters are a bit one dimensional, or, where more complex, then with a feeling of being intentionally so."
