Reviews
" State Tectonics is a really good story about our near future and how social and news media are increasingly shaping the perceived realities of people and countries. It shows how people of good will can invent the future of democracy, and how that future might further evolve. The entire Centenal Cycle offers a vision which already influences the path of democracy and commerce in the here and now." --Craig Newmark, founder of CraigsList "Satisfying as a novel, anxiety-inducing as a comment on our society." -- Kirkus Starred Review on State Tectonics PRAISE FOR NULL STATES "Subtly radical (except where it's openly radical), this book and series continues to offer a kinetically involving narrative that can also make you think about our actual world today." -- RT Book Reviews on Null States , Top Pick (4.5 Stars) "Carefully researched, prescient, thoughtful, and disturbing." -- Kirkus Reviews on Null States "Seriously inspirational for people who are genuinely involved in inventing the future." -- Craig Newmark, founder of CraigsList "A riveting science fiction thriller that brings the future of democracy to vivid, divisive life... a hell of a good story." -- The Chicago Review of Books "Subtly radical (except where it's openly radical), this book and series continues to offer a kinetically involving narrative that can also make you think about our actual world today." -- RT Book Reviews, Top Pick (4.5 Stars) "Carefully researched, prescient, thoughtful, and disturbing." -- Kirkus Reviews PRAISE FOR INFOMOCRACY "Kinetic and gripping, the plot hurtles toward an electoral climax that leaps off the page." -- NPR "Futurists and politics geeks will love this unreservedly." -- The New York Times Book Review "This brilliant book is unquestionably one of the greatest literary debuts in recent history." -- The Huffington Post "A futuristic world with eerie parallels to current events... [an] uncanny political thriller." -- The Washington Post "Smart, ambitious, bursting with provocative extrapolations, Infomocracy is the big-data-big-ideas-techno-analytical-microdemoglobal-post-everything political thriller we've been waiting for." --Ken Liu, author of The Grace of Kings "A fast-paced, post-cyberpunk political thriller... If you always wanted to put The West Wing in a particle accelerator with Snow Crash to see what would happen, read this book." --Max Gladstone, author of the Craft Sequence "A frighteningly relevant exploration of how the flow of information can manipulate public opinion...timely and perhaps timeless." -- Kirkus Reviews starred review "Older's sparkling debut, the first full-length novel from the novella-focused Tor.com imprint, serves as both a callback to classic futurist adventure tales by the likes of Brunner and Bester and a current examination of the power of information." -- Publishers Weekly "In the mid-21st century, your biggest threat isn't Artificial Intelligence--it's other people. Yet the passionate, partisan, political and ultimately fallible men and women fighting for their beliefs are also Infomocracy 's greatest hope.

    Great seller! Item is what I ordered; good communication; shipped promptly; good value. NOTE TO SELLER: packaging was NOT appropriate for item; it was a flimsy, plastic envelope, with no stiff material to prevent creases. The book came with two deep creases that involved the *entire* item: one is a 1" triangle lower left side (bound edge); the other is a 7" triangle on upper right side (open edge).

    This is an outstanding seller to deal with. Fair prices that are more than reasonable in this economy. The product is in better condition than described, a true value for my money. Packaged and shipped well shows seller has concern for the products he sells to arrive in excellent condition. The seller is friendly and communicates timely with his customers. I highly recommend this seller and would do business again anytime. Thank you!
