Orbital Resonance was nominated for the Nebula Award for Best Novel in 1991.

Critical reaction

Writer Jo Walton declared: "This may be Barnes’s best book. (Or that may be A Million Open Doors.) It’s a book almost everyone who likes SF will enjoy, and if it gives you a lot to think about as well, then that’s all to the good."
