Industry Reviews "The many social views implicit in the book are those of a sane, cultured man of the 20th century, those of, say, Mr. Clarke, whose interesting nonfiction addendum contains technical, historical, and personal notes that reveal the author's kindness and scientific knowledge." New York Times Book Review - John Allen Paulos (03/09/1997)
"This novel recapitulates, revisits major themes, gathers up a few loose ends from the previous three episodes, and loosens a few more. If there are no major surprises, none the less, he displays his pre-eminent power to imagine the extraordinary and describes it with conviction: a tower 30,000 miles high, the volcanoes of Io, the boiling ice of Europa." Times Literary Supplement (03/21/1997)
