Reviews
“Baker’s characterizations are robust and detailed, as is her development of the historical setting … [Readers] will recognize in Baker a fantasist of considerable promise.” —Publishers Weekly
“So, how do you classify a seriously philosophical time-travel story of a young cyborg’s first love amid religious conflict? As a good read.” —Locus
“A highly impressive and thoroughly engrossing debut.” —Kirkus Reviews on In the Garden of Iden
“The debut of a major talent. Kage Baker is a fresh, audacious, ambitious new voice.” —Gardner Dozois on In the Garden of Iden
“The prose is compulsively readable – it has the breezy feel of someone casually telling us a story, a feeling I associate with, say, Heinlein at his best. . . In fact, the whole book is a great deal of fun . . . it’s easily on a level with Le Guin’s or Resnick’s first novels.” —New York Review of SF
