Publishers Weekly loves Rollback



The first review of my upcoming Rollback is in, and it's a corker: Publishers Weekly -- the trade journal for the book business -- has given Rollback a "starred review," their highest honor; starred reviews "denote books of exceptional merit."

An excerpt from the review, which is in the 15 January 2007, edition:
Canadian author Sawyer (Mindscan) once again presents likable characters facing big ethical dilemmas in this smoothly readable near-future SF novel. Sawyer, who has won Hugo and Nebula awards, may well win another major SF award with this superior effort.
Go me! :)

Congratulations. I'm sure it's well earned.

Hi Rob, good stuff! I'll have to wait for "Rollback" in paperback but I bought "Calculating God" last Friday.
