Review
Rudy Rucker's latest novel, The Big Aha, is pure transreal Ruckeriana featuring extreme biological and quantum technologies, steamy techno-sex, nasty aliens from higher dimensions -- and all soaked in the unique atmosphere of the magical 1960s. ... This is a great example of how science fiction publishing is being redefined.
