Reception[]
Dave Langford reviewed Slow Birds and Other Stories for White Dwarf #72, and stated that "strangenesses include inverted, inexplicably expanded, and time-frozen worlds, a vitriolic tale of political physics which plunges Margaret Thatcher below Absolute Zero, and uneasy horror stories. Worth a look."[1]
