Once the mainstay of science fiction, adventure stories fell out of favor during the 1960s and early 1970s. But in recent years, science fiction writers have spun out galaxy-spanning adventures as imaginative and wonderful as any of yesteryear's tales. Renowned editor Gardner Dozois assembles seventeen such escapades here, with stories from today's and tomorrow's finest writers.

"Dozois once again unites a magnificent gamut of epic storytellers into one volume that travels beyond the outermost galaxies and stirs the emotional foundations of the human condition."-- "Bookpage, on The Year's Best Science Fiction" "Dozois is to the 1980s and 1990s what John W. Campbell, Jr., was to the 1940s and 1950s-- the finest editor in the world of short SF."--"Publisher's Weekly"  Be the first to write a customer review
