An accessible novel packed with big ideas, wonders, jeopardy and, at the end, a real emotional punch - SFX

This ambitious hard SF epic shows Robinson at the top of his game - Publishers Weekly - starred review

Aurora is Robinson's best book yet . . . Heart-wrenching, provocative - Scientific American
