Publishers Weekly, starred review
"Science, imagination, storytelling, and action are all here. Fast-moving fun and a highly creative plot."
-
Kirkus, starred review
"Preston's novels are a lot of fun because he really commits to the stories. He might be writing about ordinary people in a fantastic situation, but he isn't writing a fantasy. The villain of the story, as out-of-this-world as it might be, is presented as realistically as any human villain, which gives the story an unsettlingly plausible atmosphere. Highly recommendable."
-
Booklist
"A combination police procedural and adventure story, is engaging and suspenseful, with an interesting array of characters. For a glimpse of things we might see in the future, read the book. Highly recommended."
