"An anthology which . . . serves as an excellent snapshot of modern SF."--The Guardian

LE GUIN, ELIZABETH MOON, PAT MURPHY, CHARLES STROSS, MICHAEL SWANWICK, HARRY TURTLEDOVE, AND MANY OTHERS) weaving a tapestry that covers a broad range of scenarios: from the insidious, to the violent, to the transcendent.
