Recenzii
"A
swashbuckling
thriller--Pirates
of
the
Caribbean
meets
Firefly--that
nevertheless
combines
the
author's
trademark
hard
SF
with
effective,
coming-of-age
characterization."
—The Guardian
"Revengeris classic Reynolds-that is to say, top of the line science fiction, where characters are matched beautifully with ideas and have to find their place in a complex future. More!"—Greg Bear
"AlastairReynolds [is] one of the leading lights of the New Space Opera Movement . . . .Revengeris tremendous fun."—Locus
"Reynolds has sketched in a galaxy littered with the relics of former civilizations (human and alien), with plenty left to the reader's imagination, and room for a sequel."—Library Journal
"An expert mix of the fantastical and horrific."—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"A blindingly clever imagining of our solar system in the far flung future."—The Sun
"A rollicking adventure yarn with action, abduction, fights, properly scary hazards, very grisly torture and even ghosts of a sort."—The Daily Telegraph
"By far the most enjoyable book Reynolds has ever written."—SFX
"The World ofRevengeris undeniably fascinating, and with Reynolds as your storyteller, a journey into it is definitely worthwhile."—SciFiNow
"Basically, it'sTreasure IslandmeetsMoby Dick, set in space, with a niceBlade Runner-ish color palette and a cast of character worthy of a Terry Gilliam movie. I loved it."—Joanne Harris
"Reynolds makes the human story compelling in a narrative that, spiced with bizarre characters aplenty and propelled by vengeance, smacks intriguingly of everything from Robert Louis Stevenson'sTreasure IslandtoMad Max."—Nature
"An excellent, gripping piece of work."—SFANDF Reviews
"A delightful romp through the spaceways."—Interzone
"A must-read . . . an unexpectedly personal and emotionally-driven tale of determination and retribution - with some great twists along the way and a gutsy heroine who will appeal to fans of young adult literature."—Starbust
"A layered star-spanning odyssey filled with drama, adventure, and, yes, revenge."—AudioFile
