I particularly like this review of Aldiss's writing on the trilogy as a whole:

"The detail can get you bogged down at times but at others the author just skims through things as in 'I dropped the bomb and it went off. The next day I ate some ice cream and began studying piano for three years.' (Not an actual quote from the book, but you get the drift.) I wouldn't go out of my way to look for other books by this author."

I guess he wasn't a fan.
