The Hidden Girl and Other Stories
Liu, Ken
From the title
story’s fantastical inter-dimensional assassins to the steampunk
dystopia of "Grey Rabbit, Crimson Mare, Coal Leopard" burrowing through
the ruins of a civilisation destroyed by a plague, from Black
Mirror-esque tales of blockchain cryptography ("Byzantine Empathy") and
Internet trolling ("Thoughts and Prayers") to a three-story hard-SF arc
about artificial intelligence and the singularity ("The Gods Will Not Be
Chained", "The Gods Will Not Be Slain" and "The Gods Have Not Died In
Vain"), here are 17 interlinking visions that explore what it is to be
human, and what it is like to abandon or transcend that. This collection
confirms Ken Liu, author of the astonishing and multi-award winning The
Paper Menagerie and Other Stories, as one of speculative fiction’s
greatest short story writers. Contents include: Ghost Days, Maxwell’s
Demon,The Reborn, Thoughts and Prayers, Byzantine Empathy, The Gods Will
Not Be Chained, Staying Behind, Real Artists, The Gods Will Not Be
Slain, Altogether Elsewhere Vast Herds of Reindeer, The Gods Have Not
Died in Vain, Memories of My Mother, Dispatches from the Cradle: The
Hermit - Forty-Eight Hours in the Sea of Massachusetts, Grey Rabbit,
Crimson Mare, Coal Leopard, A Chase Beyond the Storms (an excerpt from
The Veiled Throne, Book 3 of the Dandelion Dynasty), The Hidden Girl,
Seven Birthdays, The Message, Cutting.
