John Lennon é nosso protagonista pobre coitado nessa releitura do neoliberalismo zumbi onde o método frankenstein existe e garante a uma única empresa alemã o domínio mundial, agora ameaçado por um grupo russo misterioso. Nessa jornada pop-absurda, mas de construção de mundo consistente e bem elaborada, encontramos diversas personalidades históricas, incluindo o famigerado "ninguém". Diverti-me um bocado!

Super anthology viewing colonialism from from the pov of the colonized. Excellent selection of stories, all of which will make you think and rethink your perspectives.

Livrinho fofo e curto com dicas e anedotas para quem gosta de ler, escrito por um leitor ávido. Minha questão com o mesmo foi que eu precisaria de mais anedotas e algo um pouco mais detido para me convencer melhor. Mesmo assim, no combo deste com o no. 2, recomendo.

...We See a Different Frontier is a fascinating piece of reading. It tackles a theme that is so hugely complex that there are countless of ways to approach it and the stories the editors reflect that. The diversity in these stories is stunning. The anthology offers no easy answers but makes the reader aware of issues that are rarely raised in science fiction. In her afterword Ekaterina Sedia mentions that the collection left her 'a bit whiplashed' and that is not far from how I experienced show more it. These stories are challenging and thought-provoking, qualities that good speculative fiction in my opinion needs to possess, but at the same time they manage to cover ground most readers of the genre will be unfamiliar with. This anthology is one of the best themed anthologies I've had the pleasure of reading. It deserves a larger audience than it is likely to get.
