—Asimov’s Science Fiction on The Merchants’ War
“Charles Stross, whose books burst with pop-science ideas, intrigue, strong characters, and even romance, continues his Merchant Princes series.… Stross is an energetic writer … who creates page-turning reads.”
—BookPage
“These books are immense fun, a sort of twenty-first-century version of the solid, thought-out costume sword-and-spaceship fiction that provided the enduring spine of science fiction entertainment.”
—Locus on The Hidden Family
“Very successful—perhaps even successful enough to give Roger Zelazny’s Amber and Philip José Farmer’s World of Tiers a run for their money. Yes, Stross is that good.”
—Analog on The Hidden Family
