"[A] complex meditation on fame, taboo, gender, and social control . . . as mind-bending as it is satisfying."--Publishers Weekly

An immersive future history, The Unraveling is a fantastic adventure that is also a story about the love that binds us to each other--and to the galaxy itself. Rosenbaum's writing is wonderfully complex and whimsical, but most of all it is humane. No matter how alien his characters and worlds, they feel like kin." --Annalee Newitz, Hugo and Lambda Award-winning author of Autonomous

"I hope a ton of people read this book, think about it, and talk about it, as this is the book that could launch a hundred think pieces and a thousand imitators . . . I truly feel like The Unraveling is a reinvention of new directions stories can go when playing with science fiction's favorite questions: What If? Why Not?" --Little Red Reviewer

"The wonders of this novel are best revealed by reading it. . . .I was surprised again and again." --Rich Horton, editor of Locus

Praise for The Ant King and Other Stories:
"Give him some prizes, like, perhaps, "best first collection" for this book." --Booklist (Starred review, Top 10 SF Books of the Year)

"Featuring outlandish and striking imagery throughout . . . this collection is a surrealistic wonderland." --Publishers Weekly

"Urbane without being arch, sweet without being maudlin, mysterious without being cryptic."--Cory Doctorow, author of Boing Boing

"Lively, bizarre, and funny as well as dark, sinister, and sensual." --Boston Phoenix

"Contains invisible cities and playful deconstructions of the form. In "Biographical Notes to 'A Discourse on the Nature of Causality, With Air-Planes, ' by Benjamin Rosenbaum"--yes, his name is part of the title--the author imagines a world whose technologies and philosophies differ wildly from ours. The result is a commentary on the state of the art that is itself the state of the art." --Los Angeles Times (Favorite Books of 2008)
