dialogue...balances a well-crafted and imaginative story with
incisive social critique and a vivid sense of place."--Emerge
"An impressive debut precisely because of Hopkinson's fresh
viewpoint."--The Washington Post
"Excellent...a bright, original mix of future urban decay and West
Indian magic...strongly rooted in character and place."--Sunday
Denver Post
"Hopkinson lives up to her advance billing."--New York Times Book
Review
"Hopkinson's writing is smooth and assured, and her characters
lively and believable. She has created a vivid world of urban decay
and startling, dangerous magic, where the human heart is both a
physical and metaphorical key."--Publisher's Weekly
"Splendid....Superbly plotted and redolent of the rhythms of
Afro-Caribbean speech."--Kirkus Review
"Utterly original....the debut of a major talent. Gripping,
memorable, and beautiful."--Karen Joy Fowler, author of The Jane
Austen Book Club
