Description
Winner of a Prometheus and Sidewise Award, The Human Front follows the adventures of a young Scottish guerrilla drawn into low-intensity sectarian war in a high-intensity future, when the arrival of an alien intruder calls for new tactics and strange alliances. Acclaimed British sci-fi author Ken MacLeod's unique vision is developed even further in a new commentary written especially for this edition, and in his delightful personal account of a Hebridean youth's first encounter with the show more post-capitalist world. Also featured is an outspoken interview with MacLeod. show lessTags

Interesting novella, shame it wasn't expanded on more.
I was midway through the novella before I realized I was no longer in a foreword :)
