This is the first short story collection in seven years from multiple award-winning author Ian Watson who worked for a year with Stanley Kubrick writing the screen story to the film A.I. Artificial Intelligence and wrote the very first Warhammer 40K novels. This volume gathers together ten uncollected stories previously published between 2016 and 2023 in Asimov’s Analog and elsewhere along with a brand new novella - one of four tales set in a near future shaped by The Chinese Time Machine..
