“The Mad Scientist’s Daughter is a deeply engaging tale beautifully
told. Cassandra Rose Clarke is a superb writer and this
spellbinding novel should appeal to genre and mainstream readers
equally.”
*Graham Joyce, author of The Silent Land*
“Cassandra Rose Clarke has delivered a novel that is brave enough
to take on one of the largest issue’s confronting all of us
today—just what exactly it means to be human in a time when the
definition of such seems to alter almost daily in the face of
whirlwind technological change. The Mad Scientist’s Daughter is a
haunting, memorable, and very original love story, told in an
alluringly graceful prose.”
*Peter LaSalle, author of Tell Borges If You See Him: Tales of
Contemporary Somnambulism*
“Cat is a finely etched character, difficult, distant, and living
in denial of her true feelings for years … Cassandra Rose Clarke
does a fine job of staying inside her protagonist’s head, and
capturing what it’s like to drift through life without the will or
the opportunity to make the best decisions.”
*Sci Fi Magazine*
"It's a neat premise and Clark examines the ramifications with the
precision of a poet, eschewing the genre's typical preoccupation
with science and opting instead for a dramatisation of the love
affair...this is SF for admirers of The Time Traveller's Wife."
*The Guardian*
