Reviews

Robinson is one of the world's finest working novelists, in any genre. New York 2140 is a towering novel about a genuinely grave threat to civilisation

Like all great sci-fi, New York 2140 is as much inward-looking as it is forward- . . . Robinson's work has a strong, intelligent social conscience

Robinson seamlessly binds together characters and narrative strands . . . An immensely enjoyable reading experience

Only sci-fi can drown Manhattan and make you want to live there
