Synopsis

Gene Wolfe is producing the most significant body of short fiction of any living writer in the SF genre. It has been ten years since the last major Wolfe collection, so STRANGE TRAVELLERS contains a whole decade of achievement. Some of these stories were award - nominees, some were controversial, but each is unique and beautifully written. This is one of the finest short fiction collections of the 1990s.
