Paperback. Condición: New. What inspired George R.R. Martin, the creator of the hugely successful Game of Throne franchise? Why did Lois McMaster, winner of six Hugo awards, start writing science fiction? How did the Vietnam war experience impact David Drake and his writing of military SF.Get the answers to these and many other…questions with these detailed interviews of some of the most iconic figures in science fiction and fantasy. These interviews show a very intimate, unknown side of these authors; many sharing very personal experiences (the good and the bad) that made them the writers that they are today. Galaxy's Edge magazine is known for its interviews of science fiction and fantasy professionals, and the list of writers and other professionals it has published reads like a who's who of the field, including George R.R. Martin, Mercedes Lackey, Larry Niven, Connie Willis, Lois McMaster Bujold, David Drake and a host of other authors every science fiction reader is familiar with. This book collects all the interviews published in Galaxy's Edge magazine from its inception through to its 34th issue. In many cases these are expanded, original versions of the interviews published in the magazine (which had to be originally condensed for due to limitations of the magazine format). Some of these conversations will make you think hard, some will make you smile and laugh, and some may even make you cry. But what each and every interview will do is give you a unique insight into the genre and the lives of these giants of the industry.

Paperback. Condición: New. NOMINATED FOR THE NEBULA AWARD"Mind-expanding" -Kirkus, starred review"Dreamy and precise, huge in scope and very personal, this is a towering achievement and a genre-busting tour de force."-Daily MailRefusing the queen's order to gas a crowd of protesters, Minister Shea Ashcroft is banished to the bor…der to oversee the construction of the biggest defensive tower in history. However, the use of advanced technology taken from refugees makes the tower volatile and dangerous, becoming a threat to local interests. Shea has no choice but to fight the local hierarchy to ensure the construction succeeds-and to reclaim his own life.Surviving an assassination attempt, Shea confronts his inner demons, encounters an ancient legend, and discovers a portal to a dead world-all while struggling to stay true to his own principles and maintain his sanity. Fighting memories and hallucinations, he starts to question everything.Sleeping Worlds Have No Memory is a thought-provoking meditation on the fragility of the human condition, our beliefs, the manipulation of propaganda for political gains, and our ability to distinguish the real from the unreal and our willingness to accept convenient "truths."? The novel is a compelling exploration of memory, its fragile nature, and its profound impact on our perception of identity, relationships, and facts themselves."Eloquent, moody, poetic. . . masterful."-Beth Cato (author of A Thousand Recipes for Revenge)A note from the author: "A major theme of the book is how disinformation and propaganda can be used to justify violence, and how ignoring evil can lead people to accept atrocities. I was able to witness all this first-hand, having spent the first 21 years of my life in Russia and absorbing the recent events unfiltered and in my native tongue. Sleeping worlds are not only devoid of memories; they are also oblivious to the pain of others."A unique blend of science fiction, fantasy and noir, with zeitgeist and prophetic qualities (the original novella anticipated the Russo-Ukrainian War), this is a must for fans of China Miéville's Bas-Lag series, Ted Chiang's Tower of Babylon, and Robert Silverberg's Tower of Glass."An imaginative, heady clash of fantasy and science-fiction that delivers powerful messages"-FantasyBookCritic"Triumphs in its emotional and unsettling storytelling" -The Fantasy Hive.
