"...a spectacular ending for a wonderfully imaginative story."
SFRevu
"An ingenious, if complex premise, but the heart of the story lies in Lou's self-doubt when it comes to the execution of her plan to cause her target to betray herself."
Locus
Kristine Kathryn Rusch has been writing her brand of excellent SF since the late 80s and she is still a vigorous presence in the field. "The Last Surviving Gondola Women" takes place in an alternate USA, circa 1890. ... This is a fine story, with an interesting alternate world and a pleasant protagonist (who herself has some secrets.) Rusch uses tight, clear prose to tell her story. It is an enjoyable read..."
