Aliette de Bodard. The Shipmaker. (Interzone #231, Nov/Dec 2010).

welcoming non-western/eurocentric, non-male perspective

Gwyneth Jones. The Ki-Anna. (Engineering Infinity)

The shift in perspective is a touch unsettling, which makes for a more interesting reading experience.

Gregory Benford. Mercies. (Engineering Infinity).

Rather than giving full rein to his imagination, Benfore gives us a story based on a Heisenberger principle – but not the famous uncertainty principle..

David Moles. A Soldier of the City. (Engineering Infinity).

A complex, layered story.

aside : Strahan

[6th March 2011] Just placed my order for Strahan’s Years Best Science Fiction and Fantasy #5 from Amazon! Delivery in a week or two they reckon.. amazon.com | amazon.co.uk

John C. Wright. Judgement Eve. (Engineering Infinity).

It’s a complex story, densely written and at time boggling, of human frailties and emotions exposed by those powers, it’s hard SF mashed up with epic Greek legend, reading almost as if translated from ancient stone tablets.

Gwendolyn Clare. Perfect Lies. (Clarkesworld Magazine #54, March 2011).

..more of an Analog-type story, where the implications of an interesting scientific issue/condition are explored.
