Praise for “Wolves of Eternity”
“Not a conventional sequel . . . Revives fiction as an inquiry into the cosmos, re-enchanting the latter with those beguiling secrets science had stolen from it.”
“The range of subjects The Wolves of Eternity explores is fascinating, but the elements of the novel that gave me the most joy were also the most prosaic . . . Perhaps I’ll be in the minority to say it, but I wanted The Wolves of Eternity to be even longer.”
“There’s a greater power, I reckon, to be gleaned in the ordinariness of things . . . The less The Wolves of Eternity novel is about, the more it has to say.”
