Rezensionen

'Unsettling and subversive ... terrifically good' Sunday Times

'Terrifying and strangely haunting ... A riveting work from a writer of rare imaginative largesse, a bearer of bad tidings, unforgettably told' Daily Telegraph

'Wonderfully warped, blackly comic ... written with Ballard's customary panache, its potent mix of sex, violence and radicalism will keep his fans happy' Economist

'Ballard's instinct for the future is unnerving ... Very few writers possess this kind of intelligence: to use it with such wit is almost criminal' Independent on Sunday

'The terrifying thing about Ballard is his logic; is this science fiction or history written ahead of its time?' Len Deighton
