a novel that works brilliantly as a space adventure and also reads, touchingly, almost as an atheist's reflection on why a kind of optimistic agnosticism may be a useful approach to finding contentment * SFX * A tremendously assured read, a fast-paced page-turner that delivers a well thought out story. * GUARDIAN * An utterly involving thriller, with a mystery that unfolds under steely control. * DAILY MAIL * It's grand, involving and full of light and wonder. Poseidon's Wake is one of the best sci-fi novels of the year * Sci-Fi Now * his finest moment yet and a glorious conclusion of the trilogy. A wonderful book and best that British SF has to offer at the moment * Upcoming 4 Me * Reynolds has not only rise to the challenge, but upped the ante. * SFX * Although a long book, with so much story to fit in there is a brevity to the text which makes it an easy read which can be enjoyed as a standalone even though it satisfactorily revisits and resolves the majority of the threads from the previous novels * Geek Chocolate * Intriguing speculation about human identity and potential. * PUBLISHERS WEEKLY * Possibly the best space opera I've read. * SF REVU * a well realised sci-fi universe, with plausible character * SF&F Reviews * Having completed the trilogy I now want to return to its beginning and re-read. Alastair Reynolds is one of my very favourite authors, every book is a much-anticipated event, and withPoseidon's Wake he shows yet again why that is. I loved every single page. * For Winter's Nights * Reynolds combines depth in characterization and dazzling hard-science applications to keep the reader turning pages. * BOOKLIST * Transhumans, talking elephants, inscrutable aliens and good old fashioned spaceship fights all contribute to a breathtaking adventure * THE SUN * A vivid universe with beautiful settings and engaging, dynamic characters ...Fans of sf will definitely want to pick up this title, especially if they also enjoy mysteries or police procedurals. * LIBRARY JOURNAL * A revelation that satisfies the demands of SF and mystery. * LOCUS * If you're looking for a cracking sci-fi mystery, pick this one up. * SF AND F REVIEWS * Incredible story telling and all plaudits are greatly deserved. * GEEK SYNDICATE * Cerebral but gripping, Elysium Fire is a must for Reynolds fans and a recommended read. * SCIFINOW * A well-paced, complex story replete with intrigue, invention and an optimism uncommon in contemporary SF * The Guardian *
