Ken Liu is a genius
*Elizabeth Bear*
A phenomenal anthology of short speculative fiction
*Kirkus Reviews*
Whether or not Chinese SF really is a creature all to itself, on
this evidence it's certainly worth reading
*Interzone*
An excellent introduction to Chinese Science Fiction and the
subtleties of woven symbology and allegory as intellectual
discourse. To characterise some this content as stories of protest
would deny them their detail, layers and intelligence
*Concatenation*
Even what doesn't happen is epic
*London Review of Books*
