In the Empire of Shadow

Lawrence Watt-Evans

In the Empire of Shadow

A handful of ordinary Americans – housewives, lawyers, interior decorators, and the like – found themselves caught up in a transdimensional conflict, and transported from their homes to realms where magic worked, to desert planets and rebel worlds, to places straight out of science fiction and fantasy. But these were not the harmless, happy-ending lands of film and fable. The sweat and blood was real, and the horrors they faced genuinely dangerous.

John Boston and Damien Broderick's concluding volume of their critical trilogy examines the history and development of these important magazines–and the...

But the wars are also free entertainment for the masses. In a world where most jobs have been taken over by automation, free tranquilizers have to be issued to the vast lower class to keep them subdued. The Corporate Wars offer what little...

Xeno Fiction: More Best of Science Fiction

Science fiction loves strangeness. It relishes oddities, even when it piles on fear and dystopian loathing. The technical term for a fascination with the strange and alien is xenophilia, just as the term for a terror of the strange is xenophobia. At its core, then, science fiction is…Xeno Fiction. So science fiction seeks out the strange, roams far from home in space and time, looks with avid eagerness upon the ways of the Others, human or alien. It participates, in brilliantly lighted...

But Rothman turns all of it, even a convoluted conspiracy, into a diverting, worthwhile story… Intelligent in its technical details, but also refined and delightfully complex in its storytelling." – Kirkus The world is moving towards alternative energy.

Life under a Deathwish policy was fun while it lasted, but for Deathwisher Roy Cox it was far more than that.
