Critical reaction
Writer Jo Walton declared: "This may be Barnes’s best book. (Or that may be A Million Open Doors.) It’s a book almost everyone who likes SF will enjoy, and if it gives you a lot to think about as well, then that’s all to the good."[1]
gollark: Muahahahaha. None can escape the reduction of 3D RGB-space into 2D.
gollark: As planned.
gollark: I should make some more by packing arbitrary quantities of colours into a 2D image via space-filling curve,
gollark: Check out this image which is definitely *not* a dangerous cognitohazard!
gollark: Or `1.f32()` given UFCS.
