Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. An unabridged collection spotlighting the best hard science fiction stories published in 2020 by current and emerging masters of the genre, edited by Allan Kaster. Aliens, who believe that observing the stars causes dark energy, freeze intelligent beings to prevent the end of the universe in "Salvage," by Andy Dudak. In "You and Whose Army?," by Greg Egan, a hive mind is disturbed when one of four neurally linked brothers unexpectedly breaks his connection. Creatures that feed on time threaten Earth in "Time's Own Gravity," by Alexander Glass. In "Brother Rifle," by Daryl Gregory, a Marine receives a brain implant to help him deal with a brain injury that has left him void of feelings and unable to make decisions. A married couple discover that their adopted daughter had been genetically modified before birth in "Invisible People," by Nancy Kress. "Tool Use by the Humans of Danzhai County," by Derek Kuensken, is an epic story of a man and his illegitimate daughter separately trying to revolutionize AI and bioengineering from rural China. In "How Quini the Squid Misplaced His Klobucar," by Rich Larson, a high-tech gene art heist in a future Spain is undertaken by a professional thief more interested in revenge than money. The obituary for an AI provides a list of advice for other advanced AIs in "50 Things Every AI Working with Humans Should Know," by Ken Liu. In "A Mastery of German," by Marian Denise Moore, a biotech company is concerned with the ethics of passing memories between people as it develops this capability. Human explorers struggle to survive in the deadly, primeval forest of an alien planet in "Eyes of the Forest," by Ray Nayler. In "Beyond the Tattered Veil of Stars," by Mercurio D. Rivera, a scientist creates a virtual world so other species can evolve and solve humankind's problems in the real world. An ancient polymorph constructed being, fleeing a failed utopia, returns to a familiar world to find an old friend in "Bereft, I Come to a Nameless World," by Benjamin Rosenbaum. In "When God Sits in Your Lap," by Ian Tregillis, a fallen angel in a noir-like Los Angeles is hired by a man to persuade his wealthy mother to leave her new husband and keep his aerospace empire inheritance intact. An AI helps a family cope with the death of its father in "Mediation," by Cadwell Turnbull. In "Test 4 Echo," by Peter Watts, a damaged, semi-independent component on an autonomous undersea drone on Enceladus shows signs of emerging consciousness. This item is printed on demand.
