"It is like a Dr Who adventure, inspiring curiosity and amazement. It makes a case for the relevance and fascination of physics, and for the importance of scientists and eco-warriors working together to save the planet. With a happy circularity, the plot depends on a recent discovery: Hawking Radiation, the leaking of particles out of black holes until they destroy themselves" * The Sunday Times *
"Gripping, informative and funny" * The Bookseller *
"A true beginner's guide to A Brief History of Time" * Publishers Weekly *
"A delightful book for young readers" * Independent *
