Media Reviews
"[T]hough his writing's often witty, Doctorow's satire manages not to overpower the humane, thoughtful insights at the story's center. A fantastically weird read."
-- Ruminator Review
"In this inventive parable about tolerance and acceptance...[Doctorow] demonstrates how memorably the outrageous and the everyday can coexist." (starred review)
-- Publishers Weekly
"[W]ith the potential to please both SF and mainstream readers....Smart, clever, delightful stuff;...likely to be one of the better non-magic-and-dragon fantasies this year."
-- Kirkus
