Newton's Wake by Ken Macleod

Newton's Wake by Ken Macleod

Acclaimed SF author MacLeod unleashes a new far-future world in this new stand-alone space opera.

Far more fun than deep space drama has any right to be..Just read the book. Then read it again. It's even better the second time. -- SFX
For my money, Ken MacLeod is the current champion of the very smartest kind of New Space Opera: a relentlessly engaged thinker about nitty-gritty political-economic-social matters who also operates on the Romantic end of the genre by imagining worlds that offer vast (and even godlike) possibilities for humankind...MacLeod returns to his story elements and concerns with a persistence that signals a stubbornly committed intelligence as well as a fertile and mischievous imagination, and every variation on his themes produces something worth re-reading. -- LOCUS
If you haven't yet read MacLeod's work, this is an excellent place to start. -- SCIFI.COM
The kind of book that we wish would come to us more often in science fiction...Above everything, this book is fun. -- VECTOR
Read the book. Then read it again. It's even better the second time * SFX on NEWTON'S WAKE *
Stunningly assured, inventive and intelligent * Iain M Banks on Ken Macleod *
A hectic ride, through slaloms of audacious complexity, irreverent ingenuity and paradox as purposeful as it is playful * Guardian *

Since graduating from Glasgow University in 1976, Ken MacLeod has worked as a computer analyst in Edinburgh. He now writes full time.
