Review
"White Light" is a marvelously inventive andlunatically logical story, where not only is the scaling of infinity amad, convincing adventure, but where ordinary human happiness matterstoo, movingly.-- Ian Watson in "Vector"
"White Light" is a good, intelligent powerful novel, and the most auspicious debut in the SF field since I don't know when.-- Thomas M. Disch in "Fantasy & Science Fiction"
In "White Light" Rucker commandingly synthesizes mysticism, pop imagery,the DevilHimself, Jesus Christ, the great mathematicians and theirideas, head culture, and even voodoo into a novel that takes us on awild journey to infinity, to the Absolute, and back again. As for sheerwriting, there's probably no one like him.-- John Shirley, author of the "Eclipse" trilogy.
An adventure through time and space, the likes of which only acollaboration between Umberto Eco and Lewis Carroll could attempt. Withtraveling companions ranging from Einstein to the devil to a giantbeetle named Franx...each turned corner of White Light is another gleeful surprise, another celebration of cleverness and imagination...This novel belongs to the tradition of science fiction pioneered by H.G. Wells, where the science is the source of intrigue that adventuresgrow from and propel the protagonists.
-- Amazon editorial review.
