Fractured Europe #2

SF thriller set in a fragmented future Europe, sequel to Europe in Autumn (2014), a finalist for the Arthur C. Clarke, British SF Association, and John W. Campbell Memorial awards.
• Solaris’ site has this post about the book with links to reviews.
• James Bradley reviews it in the November issue of Locus Magazine: “Yet, in a way, what is most striking about Europe at Midnight is not the hard edge of its politics, or even the casual brilliance of its science fictional reworking of the political thriller, but Hutchinson’s thrillingly assured control of his material. Hutchinson writes wonderfully, his prose animated not just by a keen eye for character, but by a blackly witty sense of humor, qualities that make Europe in Autumn both darkly entertaining and disturbingly timely.”
