Description - Seeds of Change by John Joseph Adams
- Imagine the moment when the present ends, and the future begins — when
the world we knew is no more and a brave new world is thrust upon us. Gathering
stories by nine of today's most incisive minds, Seeds of Change confronts
the pivotal issues facing our society today: racism, global warming, peak oil,
technological advancement, and political revolution. Many serve as a call to
action. How will you change with the future?
- These nine stories sow seeds of change across familiar and foreign
territory, from our own backyards to the Niger Delta to worlds not yet
discovered. Pepper, the mysterious mercenary from Tobias S. Buckell's Crystal
Rain and Ragamuffin, works as an agent for change — if the
price is right — in "Resistance." Ken MacLeod envisions the end-game in
the Middle East in "A Dance Called Armageddon." New writer Blake Charlton
imagines a revolutionary advance in cancer research in "Endosymbiont."
Award-winning author Jay Lake tackles technological change and the forces that
will stop at nothing to prevent it in "The Future by Degrees." Other stories by
K.D. Wentworth, Jeremiah Tolbert, Mark Budz, Ted Kosmatka, and Nnedi
Okorafor-Mbachu range from the darkly satirical to the exotic. All explore the
notion that change will come.
