“What makes it so wonderful is that it never ever stops to explain itself; it lets the world just gradually take shape around you. There’s nothing in the way of exegesis, no verbal explanation of how this world came to be. It’s obvious that it’s in the far future of our world, and that it’s very sparsely populated compared to our world, but not really post-apocalyptic. There are cities, and there are people who live in the cities and who have a relatively high-tech lifestyle. And then there are spaces between the cities which are inhabited by many different kinds of beings, human and non-human. This is my favourite of these Finder collections, and it’s the smallest – it’s only 60 or 70 pages. But it’s just a magical story full of indelible characters.” Read more...
