Ken MacLeod is the author of The Night Sessions, The Restoration Game, and The Stone Canal.
"The Human Front has pretty much everything you could ask from a
great story: character, insight, plot, that quality of description
that transports a feeling, sensation, incident or landscape
seemingly direct from world to mind, and revelation. It has
substance. It should make your mind reel, and work."
--Iain M. Banks "The Human Front is a complete knock out--very
funny, ingenious, and so densely political it might give you a
headache. This novella has more ideas and better characters than
most novels. It's elegant, eloquent and laugh-out-loud funny. And
that last quality by itself makes it worth the very weird
trip."
--Rick Kleffel, The Agony Column "The Human Front is a
feather-weight book, which packs a heavyweight punch. In terms of
size, it's a novella, but it includes more entertainment than many
books that are four times its length."
--Nathan Brazil, SF Site "Science fiction's freshest new
writer...MacLeod is a fiercely intelligent, prodigiously well-read
author who manages to fill his books with big issues without
weighing them down."
--Salon "Ken MacLeod's novels are fast, funny and sophisticated.
There can never be enough books like these: he is writing
revolutionary SF. A nova has appeared in our sky."
--Kim Stanley Robinson
