Recenzii de la cititorii Books Express
Victor Tanasa a dat nota:
What a ride! I'm glad I stuck around for the whole trilogy, but now is the time for something way lighter... Sure, I had to check an online glossary now and then, but by the 3rd book, as I became more familiar with all the concepts, terms and tech, it was nowhere near as frustrating as with The Quantum Thief. The series is not perfect, not by a long shot, but it's so ambitious that you at least have to admire it. I'll surely check out Mr. Rajaniemi's next works.

A widescreen-baroque grandeur... A maddening, dizzying and dazzling novel
Hannu Rajaniemi is without question one of the smartest and most exciting writers working in science fiction as we speak, and I can't wait to see what he does next.
The bottom line for The Causal Angel and the Jean Le Flambeur series: it's evocative and can be mind-bogglingly at times but this creates a highly addictive air around it, and once you get through to the fine details you will be amazed. This is must read science fiction.
With The Quantum Thief, Hannu Rajaniemi set a new standard for science fiction that dared to imagine a post-human future. With its sequel, The Fractal Prince, he successfully built on his narrative foundations to add a greater depth to his characters - not least the gentleman thief Jean le Flambeur - and an added strength to his ideas. So it's something of a relief to report that the trilogy's conclusion, The Causal Angel, doesn't disappoint.
It's all things to all people, opening up to deliver whatever you want from it - action and adventure, memorable characters, rich stories and weighty themes. This is what Science Fiction should aspire to.
The author, who has a PhD in string theory, uses the tropes of the genre to present cutting-edge explorations of post-humanism, quantum physics and cybernetics. The plot is pell-mell, the theory intellectually challenging, and Flambeur appears as a fully rounded human being, with hopes and desires, strengths and flaws.
