"Wonderful, mind-expanding stuff, and well written too."-The
Guardian Axiomatic is a wonderful collection of eighteen short
stories by Hugo Award-winning author Greg Egan. The stories in this
collection have appeared in such science fiction magazines as
Interzone and Asimov's between 1989 and 1992. From junkies who
drink at the time-stream to love affairs in time-reversed galaxies;
from gene-altered dolphins that converse only in limericks to the
program that allows you to design your own child; from the brain
implants called axiomatics to the strange attractors that spin off
new religions; from bioengineering to the new physics; and from
cyberpunk to the electronic frontier, Greg Egan's future is
frighteningly close to our own present. Included in this collection
are such wonderful stories as: "Axiomatic" "Into Darkness" "The
Safe-Deposit Box" "Blood Sisters" And many more! Axiomatic is the
perfect collection for any science fiction fan, especially one who
enjoys Greg Egan's work. The stories are imaginative and
insightful, and written only the way that Greg Egan can do so.
