"Inventive and occasionally very funny, Stross is a writer who wants to entertain but also to be taken seriously." -- Gavin J. Grant, Bookpage
"Singularity Sky is fast-paced, the characters are engaging and fun, and the sometimes tongue-in-cheek plot keeps you guessing as to the outcome." -- Paul Giguere, SFRevu
"Speculative fiction is above all else a literature of ideas. So this is exactly the kind of SF I love to read, and I heartily recommend it." -- Juliet E. McKenna, The Alien Online
"An enjoyable hard-SF debut, but one that's maybe just a little too full of ideas..." -- Juliet E. McKenna, The Alien Online
"Despite some beguiling writing, some charming humor, and some interesting concepts the book's weak cohesion fails completely under close examination and collapses entirely." -- Inchoatus
