“Satisfying from a science-fictional perspective, with its discussions of Hawking effect displacements and intergalactic conflict, from a conceptual perspective as the reader must follow complicated reasoning processes; and from a literary perspective as Modesitt reaches a new stage in the inter-twining of plot and character.” —SFRA Review on The Elysium Commission

“Modesitt’s prose is lively, and there’s enough sense of wonder here to satisfy even the most jaded. A must-read for Modesitt fans, as well as those of Jack McDevitt and Arthur C. Clarke.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) on The Eternity Artifact
