Asimov's Science Fiction - March/April 2022

Bu sayıda

Asimov’s March/April 2022 issue features a blockbuster novella, “Blimpies,”by Rick Wilber. The story contains intrigue and revelations about the planet S’hudon. Will McIntosh’s long novelette about “Dollbot Cicily” is an equal parts hilarious and terrifying tale. Don’t miss either of these fabulous reads!
And don’t miss the rest of the issue either! William Ledbetter leads us on “The Short Path to Light”; Jack McDevitt and Larry Wasserman provide “The Gold Signal”; Marta Randall takes us “Sailing to Merinam”; Paul McAuley bestows “Maryon’s Gift”; new author Arie Coleman shows us the value of “The Magpie Stacks Probabilities”; “Offloaders” meet up online in Leah Cypess’ latest work; Steve Rasnic Tem poignantly asks “Do You Remember?”; while danger threatens in Peter Wood’s “Quake”; bright secrets are revealed in Michael Cassutt’s “Aurora”; “The Rain on Venus Is Not Water,” but Christopher Mark Rose’s new tale is chilling; and Ray Nayler introduces us to the remarkable “Mender of Sparrows.”
Robert Silverberg’s Reflections peers “Across the Centuries”; in On the Net James Patrick Kelly is “Blinded by Science”; Norman Spinrad’s On Books considers “What Is Consciousness?” in the works of Kazuo Ishiguro, P.W, Singer and August Cole, and Robert Guffey; Kelly Lagor’s “Guest Editorial: From SF to Philosophy in Thirteen Steps” introduces us to her occasional Thought Experiment column on SF films. She kicks off the series with a TE on “Magic, Science, and the Moon in Le Voyage Dans La Lune.” Plus we’ll have an array of poetry you’re sure to enjoy.
