Binary

"Like all the best science fiction, the (r)Evolution series uses its speculative construct to examine aspects of modern life, in this case tolerance and the benefits of multiculturalism." ""GeekDad""" "Tackles social issues in a brilliant and subtle way . . . There's something to be said about the realistic way that the social model of disability is presented here . . . Saulter does something very praise-worthy with all this; she puts it as a thread running through the whole story but only sometimes does it become blatant and unmistakable. You get the idea into your head in such a subtle way that you don't even realise that your understanding is slowly shifting in a new direction . . . I could go on at length and praise this novel over and over again, I really could . . . social sci-fi just doesn't get any better than this!"--Bibliotropic "Delves into human psychology to show how various people react to new and challenging circumstances. There's the heartbreak of the couple who can't conceive, the norm who married a gem and faces ridicule from co-workers, adulation from music fans, revulsion from those who want a return to the way things were, and more . . . honest . . . a fantastic follow-up to Gemsigns and I can't wait to read the last book in the series."--Sci-Fi Fan Letter "It was almost impossible to put this book down . . . truly believable science fiction and I almost feel smarter from having read it. I can hardly wait to find out what happens next."--The Qwillery "A brilliantly plotted, vividly told tale that encompasses the breath of humanity's triumphs and its failures."--Spec on Spec Fic "Binary presents an entertaining and compelling story, with a tight and energetic climax . . . Stephanie Saulter is definitely an interesting writer, and one whose work I intend to keep seeking out."--Strange Horizons "Some books are good, some books are even great. This one is important. 4.5 out of 5."--SF Signal "A fascinating and compelling read . . . It comes highly recommended and we can only hope that the rest of the series to come is just as gripping."--Starburst "Stephanie Saulter has created an intriguing setting in a series that is loaded with promise."--British Science Fiction Association "Like all the best science fiction, the (R)Evolution series uses its speculative construct to examine aspects of modern life, in this case tolerance and the benefits of multiculturalism."--GeekDad
