More love for Ian McDonald:
“A painterly, colorful writer, McDonald…manages to slot together the many puzzle pieces of his plot in coherent, clever bursts of illumination…Adventurous, mysterious, suspenseful and engagingly speculative, with steamy sex scenes and a redolent, eye-popping atmosphere, River of Gods should have appeal well beyond sci fi fans.”
