'' Publishers Weekly'' had mostly praise for the novel saying:Reference in other work
In ''Cosmonaut Keep'', MacLeod makes fleeting reference to a future programmers' union called the "Information Workers of the World Wide Web", or the ''Webblies'', a reference to the Industrial Workers of the World, who are nicknamed the ''Wobblies''. The idea of the Webblies formed a central part of a later novel '' For the Win'' by Cory Doctorow, where it is given much greater prominence. MacLeod is acknowledged by Doctorow as coining the terms. MacLeod is thanked in the Acknowledments section: "Many thanks to Ken Macleod for letting me use IWWWW and 'Webbly.'"References
