Review:
'Even what doesn't happen is epic' London Review of Books. 'An excellent introduction to Chinese Science Fiction and the subtleties of woven symbology and allegory as intellectual discourse. To characterise some this content as stories of protest would deny them their detail, layers and intelligence' Concatenation. 'Whether or not Chinese SF really is a creature all to itself, on this evidence it's certainly worth reading' Interzone. 'With stories ranging over social control, world-building rats and redundant robots who have outlived the humans who made them, this is a collection that will stimulate and delight' Daily Mail. 'A wonderful collection, it's thoughtful and entertaining fiction that as a western reader opens your eyes to science fiction written by a different, rich culture. My favourite short story collection of the year' SF Book Reviews. 'Dreamlike and hypnotic, evocative and inspiring' The Bookbag. 'There is fabulous variety in this book, ranging from hard Science Fiction to near-future social Science Fiction ... a fine collection' SF Crowsnest.
