Starburst

Raft


Raft
polishes its ideas with such realistic brilliance you can see a whole civilization in it’

The Times


Raft
is fast paced, strong on suspense, efficiently written, and has moral weight, but it is the creation of a genuinely strange and believable new universe that Baxter excels … rigorous, vigorous SF at its enjoyable best’

LISA TUTTLE
Time Out

‘Almost perfect …
Raft
is very, very hard SF and it’s great fun’

Interzone

Anti-Ice

‘There is a breed of romance that nudges the what-is to the what-if. Stephen Baxter’s
Anti-Ice
is one of the most compelling of these. A touch of improper amour and impeccable period detail makes all this alarmingly addictive’

The Times


Anti-Ice
is outrageous science-fictional entertainment, pulling out all the Vernian stops and playing dice (or is it chess?) with alternative world possibilities’
