''FOUNTAINS OF PARADISE (1979), a much better book than Imperial Earth - it won the 1980 Hugo for Best Novel -- tells of the construction on Earth of a space elevator 36,000 km high, and combines the author's favourite themes of technological evolution and mankind's apotheosis with moving directness; it is the most considerable work of the latter part of his career'' (Peter Nicholls/Encyclopedia of SF).
