eBook Category: Science Fiction
eBook Description: ONLY ON SALE UNTIL April 30, 2002 R. Garcia y Robertson, one of the best adventure writers in science fiction today, returns with our exciting April cover story, hurtling us through space to the crowded and busy environs of a ring-encircled gas giant in a distant solar system, for the headlong and suspenseful story of some "Ring Rats" on a hijacked spaceship who find themselves with only the thinnest of thin chances to avoid a life of slavery--if they can avoid being killed on the spot, that is ... and if they can somehow manage to work together well enough to stay one step ahead of a cruel and utterly relentless adversary. This is colorful, fast-paced, thrill-a-minute space adventure of the purest kind--so don't miss it! Hot new writer Richard Wadholm takes us back to the evocative and electrifyingly strange far future universe of his story "Green Tea," for a tense and compelling visit inside a high-tech "Stock Exchange" filled with players expert in double-dealing and intrigue, where we learn what it means to be "At the Money" when life itself is riding on the bet ... Jeff Duntemann, who made a splash with some first-rate stories back in the 80s, returns to writing SF after more than ten years away, and makes a free-wheeling Asimov's debut, with a joyous and hugely entertaining romp that takes us in search of a "Drumlin Boiler" throughout a society unlike any you've seen before, and launches us headlong into a life-or-death race of a sort you've never seen before, either! Kage Baker, one of our most popular authors, demonstrates that if we could Talk To The Animals, we might not like what they have to say, as she tells the poignant story of "Hanuman"; and British writer Peter T. Garratt makes a magical Asimov's debut by taking us to an Arthurian Britain unlike any you see in the movies for the dark story of the kind of ominous events that can happen "When the Night Is Cold (and the Land is Dark)." Robert Silverberg's "Reflections" column sniffs at some stuff that's "Absolutely Bogus"; Peter Heck brings us "On Books"; and James Patrick Kelly's "On the Net" column takes a close-up and personal look at the electronic side of "Michael Swanwick"; plus an array of cartoons, poems, and other features. And in other upcoming issues great new stories by Ian R. MacLeod, Nancy Kress, Michael Swanwick, Allen Steele, Charles Stross, Eleanor Arnason, Paul McAuley, Robert Reed, Kage Baker, William Barton, Stephen Baxter, Brian Stableford, Liz Williams, James Van Pelt, Neal Barrett, Jr., Tom Purdom, and many others!
