Saint Rebor

Description

Award winning author Adam Roberts is one of the smartest, most insightful and downright entertaining writers of short fiction around. This, his second collection, consists of ten short stories and a poem, all previously uncollected. They include two stories that have never appeared in print before and three that are completely original to this book. The collection opens with “What Did Tessimond Tell You”, which was selected by both Gardner Dozois and Jonathan Strahan for their Year’s Best anthologies, and it builds from there. “Roberts is not just a great sci-fi writer, he’s a phenomenally interesting writer per se.” The Scotsman “Adam Roberts’ strength is that he sees SF as both cerebral and playful…” Strange Horizons Contents: 1.
