What does the future hold? This compelling anthology features science fiction’s best writers and most vivid imaginations. “A superb, generously proportioned selection of new Young Adult SF stories from an exceptional list of the masters of short fiction . . . This is surely a contender for anthology of the year.”—Locus “Quality stories by authors at the height of their craft make this anthology a must-have.”—School Library Journal, starred review Truly successful science fiction does two things: it gives a credible glimpse into the future while entertaining the reader. With this in mind, noted anthologist Jonathan Strahan asked sixteen of today's most inventive, compelling writers to look past the horizon of the present day. Kelly Link (Magic for Beginners), Garth Nix (the Abhorsen Trilogy), Scott Westerfeld (Uglies; Pretties; Specials) and their colleagues have crafted a dazzling range of stories. From spaceships, to suburbia, simulated gaming worlds, dealing with cloning, battle tactics, or corporate politics, the stories of The Starry Rift will give every reader something to consider.
