Asimov's Science Fiction - October - November 2013

Dans ce numéro

It’s time for our slightly spooky October/November 2013 double issue and that means it’s time for a little bit of terror and ghosts, a sprinkling of the occult and the outré, along with the usual forays into physics, biological regeneration, and travels through time and space. Kristine Kathryn Rusch will whisk you off to a scary “Encounter on Starbase Kappa.” Charlie Jane Anders will bring you back home to an endearing group of misfits who unravel a number of secrets at “The Time Travel Club.”

The one eerie person you definitely don’t want at your door gives Sheila Finch “A Very Small Dispensation”; though the same can’t be said of the soul sucker who assures Gregory Frost that “No Others Are Genuine”; Ian Creasey shows us that even science fictional ghosts can’t rest “Within These Well Scrubbed Walls”; Jack Dann reveals the horror that looms for those who are “Waiting for Medusa”; Meg Pontecorvo gives us an unlucky teenager who discovers what it really means to be “Grounded”; Joel Richards does some “Deep Diving” into deep space to resolve a murder mystery; in Neal Asher’s far future, it’s hard to trust those “Memories of Earth”; Igor Teper lyrically composes an ode to “Quantum Orpheus, at the Light Cone’s Apex”; Alan DeNiro develops an innovative, and dangerous art form, in “The Wildfires of Antarctica”; human biology takes off in an equally wild direction for Ian McHugh “When the Rain Comin”; and Paul Di Filippo conveys what a fool believes in “Adventures in Homogamy: A Love Story.”
