Praise for this book
"Incredibly realistic: the characters, locations, the era, and even the science. I felt like I was back in Los Alamos — and I should know: I worked there! Breathlessly riveting; Sawyer pulls it off masterfully." - Doug Beason
"I knew many of these physicists, and Sawyer nails them accurately." - Gregory Benford
"Can Sawyer write? Yes - ;with near-Asimovian clarity, with energy and drive, with such grace that his writing becomes invisible as the story comes to life in your mind." - Orson Scott Card
"Sawyer has outdone himself! No one could have taken on this project with such gusto and with such a search for the truth as this outstanding author. I've never read such a complete and thrilling account ofOppenheimer's world." - Jonas Saul
"Cracking open a new Robert J. Sawyer book is like getting a gift from a friend who visits all the strange and undiscovered places in the world. You can't wait to see what he's going to amaze you with this time." - John Scalzi
"A truly science-fictional work of alternate history." - S M Stirling
