Synopsis de l’éditeur
"...continues the fascinating look at the future possibilities of nano-technical human bio-logics." -- Speculative Fiction Reviews/The Merry Genre Go Round Reviews, June 23, 2008. "...excel[s] [in]...exploring the economics and political powers behind new technologies, their development and routes to market and the social and moral implications of such advancements." -- Death Ray Magazine (UK), September 2008. "...make no mistake, this is a series that genre fans will definitely want to check out, and an individual chapter here that could very well garner a Hugo nomination next year ...a pleasant improvement over the first book and a real treat as a genre fan to read. Undoubtedly my views will change once again when the final volume of this trilogy is out next year, which is mostly why I've been putting off a big discussion of the series' overall plot arc; until that day, though, I can solidly recommend that all SF fans get caught up with this series, and get used to a new voice in the genre who I hope will be around for a long time. Out of 10: Story: 9.2; Characters: 8.1; Style: 8.2; Overall: 8.8." -- Chicago Center for Literature and Photography, September 5, 2008. "With so much mass-media science fiction featuring anti-science heroes who battle to stop science from "going too far," it's great to read a really smart novel about a hero who's fighting to save scientific progress from being suppressed...Where MultiReal really shines, however, is in the debates over the ethics of this reality-twisting software...The other thing that makes the trilogy...a really addictive read is the depth of Edelman's world-building and characterization...it feels like a lived-in world, and the fact that the backdrop stretches out so expansively behind the characters makes them feel a lot more fleshed out and makes their obsessions seem a lot more believable. After reading the first two volumes in the trilogy, I'm pretty eager to get to the third, partly because I'm invested in the characters and their world, and partly because dying to see exactly what kind of solution to the MultiReal dilemma could possibly make sense...Mostly, I'm in it for the long haul, because it feels like Edelman is writing about real people and real issues, in a thrilling, engaging way. And that's rarer than it should be." -- io9.com, September 10, 2008. "...a compelling second novel." -- Sacramento Book Review, September 2008. "In MultiReal, the reader is swept right to the eye of the hurricane - MultiReal ends in a clever cliffhanger, making the reader crave for the third and last book. Infoquake and MultiReal are very refreshing novels. In Infoquake and MultiReal, Edelman has strived for a well-thought, really thorough examination of politics and society of the universe he created. A good writer can do no less when setting out to do something in that level." --Post-Weird Thoughts blog, January 6, 2009 Lire la suite...
