“Science fiction author-hero Rudy Rucker is an oddity and a treasure . . . . In these days of neat little marketing categories, few writers attempt to cover so much ground.” —Wired

“His work links the largest possible cosmic view with the trivia and tribulations of everyday life . . . . He portrays thoroughly real, everyday people grappling with some far-fetched phenomenon . . . with comic results.” —Fantasy & Science Fiction.

“A hilarious tribute to Edwin Abbott’s Flatland . . . combining valid mathematical speculation with wicked send-ups of Silicon Valley and its often otherworldly tribespeople . . . belly-laugh funny.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
