What the critics have said about THE ENGINES OF DAWN (Well, one of them, anyway. Actually, the only one):

"One of the reasons I look forward to new titles by Paul Cook is that he captures the spirit of the SF I learned to love in the 1960s and 1970s, the strong storytelling values and sense of wonder about the universe. His latest takes a handful of familiar SF devices and recombines them in a new and exciting fashion, wrapped around a nicely done mystery . . . A lot of contemporary SF satisfies but doesn't excite. Cook's latest delivers everything you could want." --Don D'ammassa, The Science Fiction Chronicle, February-March 1999.
