"These 31 self-selected stories...[make] a highly flattering career retrospective of a postmodern fabulist disguised as a mild-mannered SF writer."
Publishers Weekly, 01/26/2009
Review:"Wolfe is a sophisticated stylist, and has more in common with writers such as Jorge Luis Borges than almost any other science fiction writer both in terms of craft and themes."
Peter Bebergal, Boston Globe, 06/08/2009
