Gathered here for the first time are the finest science–fiction stories, including the previously unpublished novelette "Alexander's Road," by the award–winning Karl Schroeder.

Whether stranded alone on the frigid oceans of Saturn's moon Titan, or searching for stolen nuclear bombs under the rusting oil derricks of Azerbaijan, Schroeder's characters assert their humanity in inhuman circumstances.

Combining classic adventure and sophisticated speculation, the ten stories in this collection are sure to satisfy a broad range of readers.
