Synopsis

Editorial Reviews Review "Clearly one of the year's major science fiction novels...The book Reynolds's readers have been waiting for."― Locus on Redemption Ark "If you like hard SF...with fast-paced action and hard-boiled characters...you're in for a great ride."― SF Site on Redemption Ark "The best of the new breed of space opera. Wild action on a grand scale spans well-imagined and developed worlds-bold and new with sharply defined differences in both characters and the changed definitions of humanity."― The Denver Post on Redemption Ark "A large, sprawling tale of war, politics, ideology and alien invasion. Skilled narrative technique and well-developed characters make this a novel most readers will find absorbing."― Booklist on Redemption Ark "With this complex, thoughtful sequel to his highly praised Revelation Space , British author Reynolds confirms his place among the leaders of the hard-science space-opera renaissance.... It's rare to find a writer with sufficient nerve and stamina to write novels that are big enough to justify using words like "revelation" and "redemption." Reynolds pulls it off."― Publisher Weekly on Redemption Ark About the Author Alastair Reynolds was born in Barry, South Wales, in 1966.
