"An excellent debut novel from a talented writer. Fantastic plot, thoughtful, imaginative and perfectly paced. The characters are three dimensional, realistic and well balanced. A very enjoyable read, I was totally engrossed. Highly recommend this book. Looking forward to more from Deane Saunders-Stowe." - K D Hescott
"Science fiction, Jim, but not as you know it.
It takes skilful writing to mix magic with science whilst moving a detective story smoothly through space. Somehow, this has been achieved in a believable and satisfying journey, where heroes are not necessarily humanoid nor fully mobile.
It feels thoroughly researched and never warps into wild fantasy, keeping its feet solidly in fiction. A fast-moving book that grips the reader and follows a non-linear plot where the author, literally, weaves all of the threads together in an exciting climax." - M Poynton
A great story, fusing sci-fi, sci-fantasy, detective and mysticism to excellent effect. Very well worth reading! It kept my attention throughout and I can't wait for the next book in the series." - V Mitchell
