Recensione:

Praise for Larry Niven: Niven lifts the reader far from the conventional world--and does it with a dash.--Los Angeles Times. The premier hard-SF writer of the day.--The Baltimore Sun Praise for Gregory Benford:Benford is one of our best.--Greg Bear, bestselling and award-winning author of Eon What sets Benford apart from most of the high-tech literary herd is his gift for characterization and language, his refusal to let gadgets overwhelm the people in his stories.... Benford never lets his characters become the animated cardboard cutouts that afflict too many hard science fiction stories. --San Francisco Chronicle
