"Adeptly balancing a concern for harsh and complicated realities with a boundless talent for the fantastical, Hancock, author of popular history works such as the bestseller "Fingerprints of the Gods", has created a fantasy realm where an epic struggle is underway.... Hancock's draw on real anthropological and archaeological information is grounding and invigorating, and his supernatural additions are both internally coherent and satisfyingly trippy." - "Publishers Weekly"
"[A] solid, fast-moving, metaphysical time-travel tale." - "Library Journal"
