Witty, smart, and more relevant than you d expect, this is a thoroughly entertaining sci-fi mind-expander from one of the genre s most reliable imaginations. <i>SFX</i> A wonderful bouquet of ideas. <i>Boing Boing</i> The fun part comes from the way Stross devises his robotkind to act as humanity s successor species to imagine them not as intellects vast, cool, and unsympathetic but as very much like us, writ not large but as merely durable. <i>Locus</i> Agreeable characters, a fascinating backdrop and brilliant plotting, with a further outlook of lengthy grins and occasional guffaws. <i>Kirkus Reviews</i> (starred review)
