Synopsis

This retrospective anniversary anthology showcases thirty years of top-notch stories published in the legendary magazine, Asimov's Science Fiction. Asimov's was founded in 1977. As one of science fiction's most influential and prolific writers, Isaac Asimov wanted to provide a home for new SF writers--a new magazine that young writers could break into. Asimov's Science Fiction remains that home as well as the publisher of some of the field's best-known authors.

Media Reviews
A truly extraordinary sampler of tales... Every piece in this superlative collection is a nugget of pure science-fiction gold. --Publishers Weekly, starred review A gem, and a credit to editor Williams. --Booklist From John Varley's 1977 look at a new kind of 'Air Raid' to Robert Reed's 2006 dissection of a fictitious and ominously portentous short-lived TV-series ('Eight Episodes'), the 17 stories in this collection span the 30-year period since the late Isaac Asimov first published the magazine that bears his name and stands for the best in current SF and visionary fiction. Including stories by Robert Silverberg, Octavia Butler, Mike Resnick, Ursula Le Guin, and other genre standouts, this volume belongs in most SF or short-fiction collections. --Library Journal The good folk at Tachyon Publications have done a fine job producing this handsome book and are to be commended, as is editor Sheila Williams for her introductory remarks... --Tangent Weighty and memorable emotional punches. --Spiral Galaxy
