THE EPOCH TIMES

"The Big Empty captures a moment when Big Tech seemingly promised everything. By turns funny and painful, Steffy's story builds like an accelerating freight train, reaching a fast-paced climax." 

SOUTHERN REVIEW OF BOOKS

"Like the titular land itself, Steffy's novel is uncompromising in spotlighting the strains that the drive toward material achievement puts on the individual in the face of nature's whims." 

BOOKLIFE

"The story hurls forward with a steady momentum, culminating in a heady-yet still persuasively realistic-climax. At the end, what lingers are the characters themselves, whom Steffy peers into with such love and empathy that readers can't help but root for them."
