Solaris has become known for its high quality anthologies. This science fiction collection is no exception with all original short stories from some of the world's finest genre authors including Daniel Abraham, Ken MacLeod, Stephen Baxter, and more.This series goes from strength to strength ... Stephen Baxter's stunning 'Artifacts' ... is worth the cover price alone, but there isn't a dud in the entire collection. -- Eric Brown, Guardian Sat. 07.03.09
