"While "Flowerdust" is a very exciting action adventure involving drug-running and political turmoil in an exotic, far-future Malaysia, it is also shot through with miracles, giving it a vivid, scary, metaphysical power. Gwyneth Jones is one of the greatest science fiction writers working today".--Kim Stanley Robinson.
I really feel honored to have the pleasure of being the first reader to review this book. I picked it up quite by accident, but though I'm into fiction and scifi, it was quite something yet unexperienced. The tale takes place in an alternate Orient enchantingly described. The story is... intriguing, bizarre and sincere. At times a bit too childlike, but if in reading it you don't win, at least you are guaranteed not to lose!
