permeate time and change the parameters of human existence…with a
large cast of Romans, ancient Britons, and colorful settings.”—S.
M. Stirling
“Epic historical fiction laced with a science fiction premise…a
vividly convincing picture of a past world.”—SFX

Stephen Baxter.”—The London Times Literary Supplement
