They named the planet after the pretty wife of the corporation's boss. The planet itself seemed not so pretty ... the first impression of the indentured worker-colonists was that it was dull. Then they met the native creatures they called "amorphs." These changelings had a weird but effective defense technique -- they changed shapes until they had the form of the most desirable object of any potential predator they encountered.

Essays and reviews by a feminist science fiction author apply sharp critical skills to discuss the genre's relationship to contemporary reality. The author examines such topics as the relationships between aspects of the science fiction genre and modern literary theory, the function of realism and language in science fiction, and the view of the body in the cyberpunk subgenre. She also explores in-depth the works of such authors as C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, Ursula Le Guin, C.J. Cherryh, and William Gibson, among others. Distributed by ISBS. Paper edition (unseen), $19.95. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

In order to demonstrate that speculative fiction provides a valuable contribution to the discussion about the challenges of the Anthropocene, Images of the Anthropocene in Speculative Fiction investigates a range of novels whose subject matter pertains to various aspects of the Anthropocene. These include the destruction and protection of the natural environment, the relationship between human and non-human inhabitants of the planet, the role of myth in the shaping of and combat against the Anthropocene, the political dimensions of the Anthropocene, the ensuing threat of the Apocalypse, and the role of post-apocalyptic narratives. To explore these topics our authors examine the works of Patricia Briggs, M.R. Carey, Dmitry Glukhovsky, Ursula K. Le Guin, N.K. Jemisin, Stephenie Meyer, China Miéville, James Patterson, Maggie Stiefvater, J.R.R. Tolkien, and Scott Westfield. Their essays demonstrate that speculative fiction, given its ability to pursue scenarios of alternative history and present familiar things in an unfamiliar way, can alter the readers’ perception of their duties and responsibilities towards their communities and the world, so that the threat of human-wrought destruction might ultimately be averted.
