Modern space adventures crafted by a new generation of Grand
Tradition science fiction writers. Smart, readable, and engaging
stories that take us back to a time when science fiction was fun
and informative, pithy and piquant-when speculative fiction
transported us from the everyday grind and left us wondrously
satisfied. Showcasing the breadth of Grand Tradition stories, from
1940s-style pulp to realistic hard SF, from noir and horror SF to
spaceships, alien uplift, and action-adventure motifs, Far Orbit's
diversity of Grand Tradition stories makes it easy for every SF fan
to find a favorite. Featuring an open letter to SF by Elizabeth
Bear and stories from Gregory Benford, Tracy Canfield, Eric Choi,
Barbara Davies, Jakob Drud, Julie Frost, David Wesley Hill, K. G.
Jewell, Sam Kepfield, Kat Otis, Jonathan Shipley, Wendy Sparrow,
and Peter Wood. "Daring adventure, protagonists who think on their
feet, and out of this world excitement Welcome to FAR ORBIT, a fine
collection of stories in the best SF tradition. Strap in and enjoy
