Harsh Oases: Stories

Über dieses E-Book

A collection of seventeen stories from the Nebula Award finalist. “Di Filippo is an inspired original and this volume is a delight” (The Guardian).

Among the seventeen stories in this collection are two that are original to this volume, some favorites of the author, and older work not previously collected. As always, the themes and stories are odd yet disturbingly familiar and hauntingly relevant: “Femaville 29” explores love and salvation among the ruins of a devastated US East Coast; “The Singularity Needs Women” has human and post-human fighting for a woman’s love; and “Harsh Oases” itself is the first addition to the Ribofunk universe since the release of that collection some years ago.

This ebook features an Introduction by Cory Doctorow.
