Recensione:

Praise for Galactic North

“A bracing read, a cold shower for the mind.”—Time Out London

“Reveals [Reynolds’s] essential approach to the whole notion of future history.”—Locus

“While the settings are classic Sci-Fi, the stories are character driven and interesting. There is a bit of mystery, the macabre and the fantastic in each...will take you back to the days when Pohl, Clarke, and Niven were new to your eyes.”—Fresh Fiction
