Praise for Quantum Shadows:
"Modesitt displays his formidable talent for worldbuilding . . .
fans of thought-provoking speculative fiction will be hooked."
--Publishers Weekly "Quantum Shadows carries the overtones of our
genre's finest writers--Zelazny and Wolfe--which is enough to
commend it. . . . Modesitt has given us a vision all his own--a
vision with the power to transport and challenge us in equal
measures." --Peter O'Rullian, author of The Unremembered
[A]ny book that can suck you into the story as this one did...and
then stick with you days after you finished reading it is a
complete winner. --The Arched Doorway Praise for Solar Express:
"[H]is science fiction ranks up there with Ben Bova, Kristine
Kathryn Rusch, Larry Niven, and Jerry Pournelle."--SF Revu
"Modesitt Jr.'s boundless imagination flings readers headfirst into
a richly imagined deep-space world." --RT Book Reviews, starred
review (4 stars) Praise for The One-Eyed Man: "The book hums along
with understated power and intellectual attractiveness, delivering
thoughtful entertainment in the best classical SF manner."
--Asimov's Science Fiction "Modesitt intricately builds a setting
that is concrete and believable." --Angela Carter "The One-Eyed Man
is actually one of the more powerful and elegant expressions of
Modesitt's themes. I'm always excited when the author takes a break
from his fantasy series to write a new science fiction novel."
