PRAISE FOR THE COMPANY SERIES
“If there’s a better time-travel series out there, go find it.”
—Kirkus, starred review
“Ms. Baker is the best thing to happen to modern science fiction since Connie Willis or Dan Simmons. She mixes adventure, history and societal concerns in just the right amount, creating an action-packed but thoughtful read.”
“Historical detail and fast-paced action with a good dose of ironic wit and a dollop of bittersweet romance.”
“Another entry in Baker’s superlative series about Dr. Zeus…. An astonishing and thoroughly satisfying installment. What’s more, Baker’s overall concept and rationale, flawlessly sustained through five books, grows ever more spellbinding and impressive.”
