Among the universe's civilizations, some conceive of the journey between stars as the sailing of bright ships, and others as tunneling through the crevices of night. Some look upon their far-voyaging as a migratory imperative, and name their vessels after birds or butterflies....

Il perfetto manuale per classificare le razze aliene è quello che le suddivide a seconda del modo che hanno scelto per viaggiare nello spazio (Alfabeto vettoriale dei viaggi interstellari di Yoon Ha Lee). C'è una storia che nessuno aveva ancora immaginato? L'amore fra due veggenti (è nel racconto di Charlie Jane Anders). Le invenzioni sono una bella cosa, ma alcune possono mettere a repentaglio la specie umana: Obediah Polkinghorn è l'uomo che le aiuta a scomparire (in cronaca, Neil Gaiman). Quando l'effetto serra sarà arrivato al culmine e la civiltà scomparsa, cosa resterà? Ma la civiltà, naturalmente, quella solo un po' più catastrofica immaginata da Bruce Sterling in uno dei suoi racconti più toccanti. E per chi non si accontenta ancora, raccomandiamo un viaggio in Kazakhstan in compagnia del Fantasma di Laika, un thriller fantascientifico ad alto potenziale.

No matter what the theme, her wide variety of stories are strikingly original and always indelible"--P. [4] of cover.

Pushing Ice is the brilliant tale of extraordinary aliens, glittering technologies, and sweeping space opera from award-winning science fiction author Alastair Reynolds. 2057. Humanity has raised exploiting the solar system to an art form. Bella Lind and the crew of her nuclear-powered ship, the Rockhopper, push ice. They mine comets. And they're good at it. The Rockhopper is nearing the end of its current mission cycle, and everyone is desperate for some much-needed R & R, when startling news arrives from Saturn: Janus, one of Saturn's ice moons, has inexplicably left its natural orbit and is now heading out of the solar system at high speed. As layers of camouflage fall away, it becomes clear that Janus was never a moon in the first place. It's some kind of machine -- and it is now headed toward a fuzzily glimpsed artifact 260 light-years away. The Rockhopper is the only ship anywhere near Janus, and Bella Lind is ordered to shadow it for the few vital days before it falls forever out of reach. In accepting this mission, she sets her ship and her crew on a collision course with destiny -- for Janus has more surprises in store, and not all of them are welcome.

A fabulous collection spanning the galaxies and career of SF superstar Alastair Reynolds Reynolds' pursuit of truth is not limited to wide-angle star smashing - not that stars don't get pulverised when one character is gifted (or cursed) with an awful weapon by the legendary Merlin. Reynolds' protagonists find themselves in situations of betrayal, whether by a loved one's accidental death, as in 'Signal to Noise', or by a trusted wartime authority, in 'Spirey and the Queen'. His fertile imagination can resurrect Elton John on Mars in 'Understanding Space and Time' or make prophets of the human condition out of pool-cleaning robots in the title story. But overall, the stories in ZIMA BLUE represent a more optimistic take on humanity's future, a view that says there may be wars, there may be catastrophes and cosmic errors, but something human will still survive.
