Century Rain

"Century Rain is a darkly brilliant love story, set in worlds we think we know but don't." -- Jon Courtenay Grimwood GUARDIAN "Further proof that he is shaping up into one of SF's best and most ambitious novelists". -- Jonathan Wright SFX "This is an intelligent space opera" -- Roz Kaveney Time Out "Century Rain is an absolute cracker of a novel. Reynolds has always been a consistently bright star in the firmament of British sci-fi but now he has suddenly, perhaps unexpectedly, gone supernova. -- OUTLAND OTTAKAR'S "Century Rain is an exciting, thought-provoking novel, an audacious synthesis of genre forms. Alastair Reynolds is now in his novelistic prime." -- Nick Gevers LOCUS While science ficiton and mystery have often been combined, no writer has done so with such intelligence or originality as Alastair Reynolds. In a single novel, he steps from the mean streets to the far future." -- Rick Kleffel Interzone "Century Rain demonstrates the growing maturity of his talent" Edge Magazine "Leaves you wishing that more science fiction was this good. A genuinely great book." -- Brigid Cherry Dreamwatch "With Century Rain, Alastair Reynolds continues the coruscating path he has blazed through SF skies. This a whopping 500-pager, brimming with ideas." -- Barry Seddon Manchester Evening News
