"THIS IS SPACE OPERA OF THE GRANDEST ORDER . . .
Malenfant's amazing story is only one of the half dozen stories entwined to give a future history of our next 8000 years. Baxter does not lose his focus during the long journey. He is exploring not only our possible futures, our survival, but the possibilities of survival of intelligence itself. . . . If we are not the only intelligent race, why have we not heard from any others? His very readable answers are horribly, intriguingly, logical and frightening."
