Shiner paints his picture of the day after tomorrow with a gritty realism that makes you believe every minute of it." —George R. R. Martin "Extraordinarilly accomplished first novel...his pacing is brisk, his scientific extrapolation well-informed, and his characterization nothing short of outstanding...This is 'realism' of a sort seldom found in commercial or literary fiction; to find it in a first novel makes one eager for more." —Chicago Sun Times "Well written...inspired...a breezy, terrific read." —Heavy Metal
