In a feat of extraordinary world building he creates a universe where a breathable atmosphere extends out between the planets, where aristocrats cruise interstellar space in biplanes and skywhals make mysterious distant orbits.

Clarke award with his debut novel SALT confirms his extraordinary potential with POLYSTOM
