Recensione:

PRAISE FOR STEPHEN BAXTER

Coalescent
“BAXTER IS AT THE TOP OF HIS FORM HERE: formally audacious, constantly surprising, clinically subversive of genre norms, cosmic irony always at hand to awe and undercut the reader.”
–Locus

Evolution
“GRIPPING . . . The perfect scientific romance of our time . . . The miracle of Evolution is that it makes the triumph of life, which is its story, sound like the real story.”
–The Washington Post Book World

“EVOLUTION IS A WORK OF OUTRAGEOUS AMBITION. . . . What is astonishing is how successfully he brings to life a wide range of facts and conjectures, and how entertaining as well as informative this book–an episodic novel with evolution as its protagonist–manages to be.”
–The New York Times Book Review

Manifold: Time
“A STAGGERING NOVEL! If you ever thought you understood time, you’ll be quickly disillusioned when you read Manifold: Time.”
–SIR ARTHUR C. CLARKE
From the Hardcover edition.
