Reviews
Superb….Such an inventive world is engrossing on its own, but the wildly unpredictable plot and characters make for plenty of surprises and twists., Strong characters, along with the clever interweaving of seemingly disparate plot threads, make this a standout selection for fans of high-tech sf and cyberfiction., A brilliant, high concept series that blends science fiction and thriller, steampunk and dystopian vision. If Neil Gaiman, Neal Stephenson, James Rollins, and Clive Cussler participated in Suzanne Collins's THE HUNGER GAMES, the result might be something akin to the dark and ingenious madness of Rees's THE DEMI MONDE: WINTER., 'A brilliant, high concept series that blends science fiction and thriller, steampunk and dystopian vision. If Neil Gaiman, Neal Stephenson, James Rollins, and Clive Cussler participated in Suzanne Collins's THE HUNGER GAMES, the result might be something akin to the dark and ingenious madness of Rees's THE DEMI MONDE: WINTER.' (BookReporter (starred review)), Explosively creative barely defines Rod Rees's The Demi-Monde Winter. It blew me away as the novel skated on the razor's edge between where we are today and where we're headed tomorrow. As much a cautionary tale as a gripping thriller cut from a digital cloth.
