Tobias S. Buckell. Zen and the Art of Starship Maintenance. (Cosmic Powers, ed Adams, Saga 2017)
A clever story to end Clarke’s volume.
Reviewing short SF since 2000
A clever story to end Clarke’s volume.
There’s a great balance of characterisation, tech, socio-political background and story here.
An excellent collection of stories.
A near-future cyberpunky cyber-thriller, with a couple of twists, double crosses, and neat touches.
Short, tight, claustrophobic and up close and personal.
Reed’s ‘Great Ship’ is the setting for a sprawling series of stories, an he has been writing them for about 20 years now, and there’s no reason as far as the setting goes, for stopping any time now.
