|
|
 Much of Geoff Ryman's work has shown a strong interest in Asia, including The Unconquered Country and more recent stories such as "The Last Ten Years in the Life of Hero Kai" (from the FSF Dec. 2005 issue), the award-winning novel Air, and his most recent book, The King's Last Song.

Originally published in the October 2006 issue of The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction. (Published: 2006) Hugo Award Nominee, Nebula Award(R) Finalist
