Theater of Spies

Praise

“A masterly mashup of historical context and SF plausibility.”—Library Journal

Praise for Black Chamber
“As a spy thriller, Black Chamber stacks up with the old classics of Kipling and John Buchan. As sci-fi, it comes off as terribly plausible, with Tom Clancy-like mastery of old weapons and potential ones.” —Wall Street Journal

“Stirling crams his story with so much historical detail that it threatens to burst, but alleviates this with plenty of suspense and action to keep readers turning the pages.”–Financial Times

“Stirling’s written a fast-paced, hectic adventure of a thriller.” –-Locus Magazine

“A rollicking spy thriller set in a familiar WW1, but with a ‘what might have been’ America.”–Taylor Anderson, New York Times bestselling author of River of Bones

“A slam-bang spy thriller with an engaging female protagonist.”–David Drake, author of Death’s Bright Day

“Nobody carries a bigger stick in the alternate-history game than S. M. Stirling. As always, he comes up with inventive twists that keep your mind racing and the pages turning. Bravo!”– Robert J. Sawyer, Hugo Award-winning author of Quantum Night

“Once again one of the best story-tellers in the world takes you on a wonderful ride.  Great tale, great characters …love it. “–David Crosby, of the Byrds and Crosby, Stills & Nash

“The nice thing about getting a Steve Stirling book in the mail is that you know for a few hours you can fly on dreams of wonder, travelling to a world so much more than this angry reality.”–John Ringo, author of Under a Graveyard Sky

“It’s a great feeling being in the hands of an alternate history master. Black Chamber is a wonderfully fun transcontinental spy romp, and a great beginning to a new series.”–Django Wexler, author of The Infernal Battalion
