This is a brilliant collection of six short stories and a novella, set in the same universe as Peter F. Hamiltonβs Nightβs Dawn trilogy. The author presents us with a compelling mix of human dilemmas, imagined technologies and extraordinary new cultures. Among others, this collection includes Sonnieβs Edge β featuring contests to the death between constructed monsters.

This is a must-have collection from a writer at the top of his game.
