On Spider Robinson:



"If one were given the task of creating Spider Robinson from scratch, the best way to do it would be to snatch James Joyce from history, force-feed him Marx Brothers films and good jazz for the better part of a decade, then turn him loose on a world badly in need of a look at itself." 

- Vancouver Sun



"Nobody's perfect. But Spider comes pretty damned close."

- Ben Bova



"A Master!"

- Locus



"Spider Robinson is the hottest writer to hit science fiction since Harlan Ellison, and he can match the master’s frenetic energy and emotional intensity, arm-break for gut-wrench.”

- The Los Angeles Times


"Spider Robinson is the Tom Robbins of the 21st century."

- John Varley


"Spider Robinson is a master storyteller…" 

- Allen Steele


[Spider Robinson] "embodies the best of Sturgeon, Heinlein, and Asimov."

- David Gerrold


“Like Heinlein in his prime, Mr. Robinson writes a crisp, tightly controlled prose about a future that is recognizably descended from today’s world, yet provocatively altered.” 

- The New York Times


"Robinson's creative imagination is admirable."

- Publishers Weekly
