Identity Theft and Other Stories
by ROBERT J. SAWYER
Introduction by Robert Charles Wilson
(Rob's second collection, published 2008)
Aurora Award finalist!
"As fellow Canadian SF author Robert Charles Wilson
points out in the introduction, Sawyer's fiction possesses
a remarkable down-to-earth quality that appeals to readers
of all nationalities. Yet Sawyer's collection showcases not
only an irresistibly engaging narrative voice but also a gift
for confronting thorny philosophical conundrums. At every
opportunity, Sawyer forces his readers to think while holding
their attention with ingenious premises and superlative
craftsmanship." Booklist
"Sawyer's latest collection is highly entertaining and
thought-provoking; the book has something for almost any
science-fiction fan. It is a testament to Sawyer's talent that
it is not necessary to be a sci-fi fan to enjoy his writing;
this is a collection of great stories that just happen to be
set in the future." Quill & Quire
Autographed copies of the Canadian-only
hardcover first edition of Identity Theft
are available from the author.
Iterations and Other Stories
by ROBERT J. SAWYER
Introduction by James Alan Gardner
(Rob's first collection, published 2002)
"Canada's leading sf author has been penning acclaimed
novels and editing anthologies for years, but not until now has
he produced a collection of his superlative, often award-winning,
short stories. His fans will be gratified to find many of his
favorite themes amply represented here, from evolution gone
awry to sentient dinosaurs to the perilous loopholes
created by quantum physics. Sawyer has a gift for casting
jarringly original ideas in lucid, sharp-edged prose that
mainstream-fiction as well as sf readers should
appreciate." Booklist
Autographed copies of the out-of-print hardcover
first edition of Iterations are available exclusively from the author.
