SF Book Reviews
Hutchinson’s prose combines the dogged realism of Philip K Dick, the linguistic flair of China Miéville and the vision of Peter Higgins. Europe at Midnight is mind-expanding, accessible yet deeply layered fiction that anything those Pulitzer-, Man Booker- or Hugo-Award-winners could offer.” SF Book Reviews

"Europe at Midnight is as rich and as relevant as its predecessor. It’s funny, fantastical, readable and remarkable regardless of your prior experience of the series." Tor.com
Locus
Hutchinson writes with wit and humanity and remarkable political nous. We sympathise with the characters because it is easy to see ourselves in them, struggling to live an ordinary life in circumstances that are never quite as ordinary as we might like them to be.” Locus
The Guardian
"With seemingly effortless literary flair, Hutchinson reveals how the stories intersect in a complex, unsettling allegory of political manoeuvring, subterfuge and statecraft." The Guardian
LA Review of Books
Reading Europe at Midnight is a little like unlocking an insane Matryoshka doll. Each layer is exquisitely crafted on the surface, but it never fails to give way to an even more outlandish layer beneath... This is high-powered fiction of the cleverest sort.” LA Review of Books
