Description

"The most compelling and innovative collection yet! Sur--Ursula K. Le Guin: A secret expedition takes a group of women explorers to the frozen wastes of Antarctica--to scale an unconquered mountain of ice 8,000 feet high ; Souls--Joanna Russ: Demon or saint, changeling or witch--a scandalous Abbess strikes a bargain with fierce Norse invaders that can cost them their souls! ; The Pope of the Chimps--Robert Silverberg: Life imitates art as a dying scientist's experiment in mortality gives his show more subject chimpanzees a diabolical new concept of God. ; Firewatch--Connie Willis: A student historian accepts the ultimate challenge to time-travel back to London's Blitz. If he changes the past or alters the future, he may not escape alive! With more provocative stories from Bruce Sterling, William Gibson, Bill Johnson, O. Niemand, Nancy Kress, Bruce McAllister, Frederik Pohl."--Pg. [4] of cover. show less
