Ian McDonald's 'River Of Gods' painted a vivid picture of a near future India, 100 years after independence. It revolutionised British SF for new generation by taking a perspective that was not European or American. 'Brasyl' will do the same for South America's largest and most vibrant country.
A story that begins in the favelas, the slums of Rio, and quickly expands to take in drugs, corruption and a frightening new technology that allows access to the multiple worlds that slip into existence in other planes everytime we make a decision. This is rich, epic SF that opens our eyes to the world and poses mind-blowing alternative sciences.
It is a landmark work in modern SF, from one of its most respected practitioners.
