eBook Description:  Our Thirtieth Anniversary Year continues at a breathless pace. The Asimov's October/November double issue has long been our most hotly anticipated, a yearly cornucopia of the very best we have to offer. And, though we don't like to play favorites with the issues of the magazine we produce, or seem unnecessarily effusive with garish hyperbole, we must admit we've got a doozy planned for you next month.Our lead story is by the ever-popular Allen M. Steele, whose "Coyote" series of stories have numbered as some of the most popular with our readers. It is thus with greatest pleasure that we announce the first part of a brand new serial from Steele, set in the Coyote universe--a thrilling novel in four installments: Galaxy Blues! Allen's truly outdone himself this time, with a sprawling adventure about the great lengths a man will go to find himself "Down and Out on Coyote." Don't miss it! That isn't even close to all we display in October/November. Robert Reed returns with a stunning, modern take on one of the most popular and enduring science-fiction tales of all time--we proudly present Reed's "Night Calls" alongside the story that inspired it, Isaac Asimov's immortal tale, "Nightfall." Acclaimed writer Greg Egan, after far too long, presents "Dark Integers," a return to the chilling computer-milieu of 1995's "Luminous." Lisa Goldstein graces our pages with the "Dark Rooms" of M�li�s and early cin�aste; Carol Emshwiller contributes a tale "At Sixes and Sevens" that might change your tune about the strange neighbors next door and their obnoxious pagan rituals; newcomer Susan Forest presents an ant farm unlike any you've seen in "Paid in Full"; Chris Butler submits "The Turn," an unusual story to rank with classic New Wave SF; Liz Williams's savage science-fantasy yarn, "Debatable Lands," will have you guessing until the surprising conclusion; Michael Cassutt sends you down to "Skull Valley" where the residents are a little rougher around the edges than you may be accustomed to; and Carl Frederick spreads his arms wide to the "Leonid Skies" so a group of familiarly modern children can experience the wonders of the heavens. Robert Silverberg's "Reflections" column continues his irregular series by "Rereading Theodore Sturgeon"; Norman Spinrad unearths "Buried Treasures" in "On Books"; plus an array of pleasant poetry.
