The result is a diverse, thought-provoking journey through future sociology, technological consequences, and human resilience, crafted by masters of the genre.
Four completely original novellas commissioned specifically for this collection.
Features an exclusive foreword by Isaac Asimov outlining the concepts that bind the stories together.
