"Moving and nuanced characterizations distinguish this subtle look at an Earth suffering the consequences of climate collapse." -- Publishers Weekly Starred Review "Novels like Clade provide the lens we need to see our way forward." - Locus "Bradley moves quickly through the lives of his protagonists, sketching their stories during key moments in the unfolding narrative. But the real story here is the all-too-realistic vision of an ecosystem in the throes of collapse,portrayed in stunning, sobering detail." -- Booklist "Bradley's novel is absorbing and depressing, as it is thoughtful and fascinating" - Barnes & Noble SFF blog Barnes & Noble SFF blog: "haunting, strangely optimistic" "Bradley's ability to find poetry amid brutal circumstances, his focus on the undeniably human problems of his cast, and a hopeful message of survival make Clade a melancholic celebration of humanity, not an elegy".
