Críticas:

"This fine collection should have appeal beyond Rush." -- Publishers Weekly

"[2113]is a solid assemblage of short stories, leaning heavily toward science fiction and fantasy. Key to the volume's success is the fact that, while the stories may have been inspired by Rush songs, you don't need to be a Rush fan -- or even know the songs -- to enjoy the stories." -- Toronto Star

"Artistic expression takes many forms and artists can draw inspiration from the work of others -- 2113 is a fine example of this phenomenon." -- Scene Magazine

"Like Rush itself, the stories are all highly professional and technically proficient . . . The range and breadth of stories here offer a striking array of riches for fans to peruse." -- Tangent

"It is a satisfying, humbling, and inspiring book. . . Well, of course, it's perfect. You definitely need to add this thing of perfection to your own collection." -- Progarchy

Reseña del editor:

18 exhilarating journeys into Rush-inspired worlds

The music of Rush, one of the most successful bands in history, is filled with fantastic stories, evocative images, and thought-provoking futures and pasts. In this anthology, notable, bestselling, and award-winning writers each chose a Rush song as the spark for a new story, drawing inspiration from the visionary trio that is Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson, and Neil Peart.

Enduring stark dystopian struggles or testing the limits of the human spirit, the characters populating 2113 find strength while searching for hope in a world that is repressive, dangerous, or just debilitatingly bland. Most of these tales are science fiction, but some are fantasies, thrillers, even edgy mainstream. Many of Rush’s big hits are represented, as well as deeper cuts . . . with wonderful results. This anthology also includes the seminal stories that inspired the Rush classics Red Barchetta” and Roll the Bones,” as well as Kevin J. Anderson’s novella sequel to the groundbreaking Rush album 2112.

2113 contains stories by New York Times bestselling authors Kevin J. Anderson, Michael Z. Williamson, David Mack, David Farland, Dayton Ward, and Mercedes Lackey; award winners Fritz Leiber, Steven Savile, Brad R. Torgersen, Ron Collins, David Niall Wilson, and more.
