Description
Original and classic science fiction about Japan from some of the greatest writers in the world. A web browser that threatens to conquer the world. The longest, loneliest railroad on Earth. A North Korean nuke hitting Tokyo, a hollow asteroid full of automated rice paddies, and a specialist in breaking up "virtual" marriages. And yes, giant robots. These thirteen stories from and about the Land of the Rising Sun run the gamut from fantasy to cyberpunk, and will leave you knowing that the future is Japanese! Contributors: -Pat Cadigan -Toh EnJoe -Project Itoh -Hideyuki Kikuchi -Ken Liu -David Moles -Issui Ogawa -Felicity Savage -Ekaterina Sedia -Bruce Sterling -Rachel Swirsky -TOBI Hirotaka -Catherynne M. Valente
