Opis

New Stories from the Brightest Stars of Silicon Valley Journeys define science fiction and fantasy, as epic heroes climb mountains and traverse deserts, or flaming rockets burst towards the heavens. It's the very mystery of the unknown that compels human imagination. Now speculative fiction authors in Silicon Valley join to offer a collection of these journeys - to alternate dimensions, back in time, up space elevators, and to dystopian futures. Mythic gods embark on hero-quests, aliens descend in flying saucers, telepaths try cosplay, and parodies of familiar characters join the excitement. A great celebration of place fills the collection since journeys and destinations include Scotland, South Africa, the Little Bighorn, and the great Silicon Valley. This extreme eight-story adventure mustn't be missed.
