Nexus Reviews

An NPR Best Book of 2013

Good. Scary good.
- Wired

Provocative... A double-edged vision of the post-human.
- The Wall Street Journal

A lightning bolt of a novel, with a sense of awe missing from a lot of current fiction.
- Ars Technica

Starred Review. Naam turns in a stellar performance in his debut SF novel... What matters here is the remarkable scope and narrative power of the story.
- Booklist

A superbly plotted high-tension technothriller ... full of delicious, thoughtful moral ambiguity ... a hell of a read.
- Cory Doctorow

A gripping piece of near future speculation... all the grit and pace of the Bourne films.
- Alastair Reynolds, author of Revelation Space

A sharp, chilling look at our likely future.
- Charles Stross, author of Singularity Sky and Halting State

The most brilliant hard SF thriller I've read in years. Reminds me of Michael Crichton at his best.
- Brenda Cooper, author of The Creative Fire

A rich cast of characters...the action scenes are crisp, the glimpses of future tech and culture are mesmerizing.
- Publishers Weekly
