City Under the Stars completes a journey undertaken by Gardner
Dozois and Michael Swanwick 25 years ago, when they published the
novella The City of God. Over two decades later, the two realized
there was more to the story, and began the work of expanding it.
Now, after Gardner Dozois' tragic passing, the story can be told in
full. God was in his Heaven--which was fifteen miles away, due
east. Far in Earth's future, in a post-utopian hell-hole, Hanson
works ten solid back-breaking hours a day, shoveling endless
mountains of coal, within sight of the iridescent wall that
separates what's left of humanity from their gods. One day, after a
tragedy of his own making, Hanson leaves the city, not knowing what
he will do, or how he will survive in the wilderness without work.
He finds himself drawn to the wall, to the elusive promise of God.
And when the impossible happens, he steps through, into the city
beyond. The impossible was only the beginning.
