*"Lancaster effortlessly incorporates into his whiz-bang plot big ideas of science versus religion, along the way borrowing from the sf masters: the large-canvas orchestrations of Asimov; the yearning nostalgia of Bradbury; the who-stole-my-memories paranoia of Dick; the pro-gaming, pro-hacking bent of Doctorow; and the spirituality of Clarke. Fans of Human.4 didn't see this giant leap forward coming--and that more than anything is the hallmark of great sf." --Booklist, starred review
"Fans of Anderson's Feed will . . . find this stimulating read well worth contemplating."--BCCB
