Songs of Chaos has "color and verve and momentum and a serious point having to do with the undesirability of social stasis." -Analog Science Fiction and Fact "SF fans looking for less emphasis upon high-tech gadgetry and more upon a future culture will be rewarded by this effort." -Booklist Songs of Chaos is a "melange of intrigue, revolutionary politics, and fast-paced action. Lewitt keeps the story moving, leavens it with interesting detail and a sympathetic protagonist, and makes her social and psychological points incisively. Songs of Chaos is an excellent read with more to it than most sf action-adventure novels. It's a throwback to days when sf adventure novels had to be about something other than running around the cosmos with bad guys chasing you." -Locus "The author has managed to take themes that everybody is using and still come up with a book that is fresh and different." -SF Commentary
