Best of British Science Fiction 2019

Angebote / Angebote:

Twenty-two stories, selected by editor Donna Scott from disparate places, that represent some of the best science fiction published anywhere in 2019: stories of heroism, stories of loss, stories of wonder. In this volume you will encounter tales in which creatures are cut off from their loved ones, someone is trapped with an abuser, a bird sings, weeds grow where we hope for a garden, we consider what our alternative selves might be doing, we can't sleep, we wish we could keep things just the way they were, we drink too much… and we look to rockets blasting off into the sky and think that there lies the future, that's hope.
