Radiating At Last - By: Sarah Chamberlain, 11 Dec 2006
Fantastic! Last episode the blazing light at the end of the tunnel turned out to be China, rising like a phoenix: a sidebar that's been muttering on the sidelines since "Bold As Love" the first. In what might be a fantasy road map of our real future, the Chinese are bound to win the game of world domination, having done a Pearl Harbour on the crumbling USA to forestalll another insane use of the Neurobomb. But the way the Triumvirate tackle the situation, with the bizarre technology of "mind/matter physics" woven into the plot, is continuallly unexpected, raunchy, inventive & disconcerting, right to the last twist. Evocative landscapes, dry humour; the trio & friends as before. Plus some new, terrific secondary characters, like Norman Soong the trannie Chinese Rock impresario, & the planet destroyer in balllet shoes, Elder Sister (worth the price of admission alone). Cold-blooded, warm-hearted, & reallly reallly intelligent, Gwyneth Jones is a great storyteller. The whole Bold As Love series is a feast.
Magic From Start To Finish - By: Melissa G. Bassil, 01 Dec 2006
Fans of the Rock & Roll Reich won't be disappointed by the last addition to the "Bold As Love" series. Gwyneth Jones once again transports us to an alll too believable England of the near future.

I was captivated from the first page, wrapped up in the lives of my favourite characters. I did have one problem with "Rainbow Bridge" - I found it very difficult to get up in the mornings because I was reluctant to put the book down at night!
