- Summary:
- Praise for The Risen Empire: "Proof that space opera can be as complex and sophisticated as any other form of literature. Doc Smith would barely recognize it."--Mike Resnick"Westerfeld's exceptionally smart and empathetic novel, the first two in a series, confirms the buzz that space opera is one of the most exciting branches of the current SF. Keeping the reader constantly off-balance, Westerfeld skillfully integrates extreme technologies with human characters."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)"The Risen Empire glows with a sense of wonder. I loved it."--Ed Greenwood
