"Introduction: Digital Rapture" by James Patrick Kelly & John Kessel
-Publishers Weekly "There are a few things I always look for in a high quality anthology: first, it should have a wide range of selections that yet epitomize the theme of the anthology. Second, it should be a diverse collection of author and genre. Third, it should have a well written introduction that acts as a thesis of sorts and adds to the literature on the subject. Digital Rapture has all these things...I highly recommend Digital Rapture" -Nerds in Babeland "Even those in the know will be enthralled by the visions of post-biological futures in this collection of short stories and essays. Sci-fi stalwarts James Patrick Kelly and John Kessel have assembled a definitive primer on the singularity, with contributions from top-tier scientists, futurists and science fiction writers." -Cosmos "...with it’s mix of fact and fiction this book rocks for those who are looking for a primer on the subject. The facts explain the thinking, the fiction tries to figure out what all that thinking could mean. The strength of the book lies in this mashing together of the theorists’ theories and content creators creations." 'Book View Cafe Praise for editors James Patrick Kelly and John Kessel: The Secret History of Science Fiction "These stories are good enough to make The New Yorker's Eustace Tilley pop his cartoon monocle." -io9 "All I really want to do, at the moment, is embrace the unsuspecting editors in a massive, spine-crunching bear hug" - Los Angeles Times Feeling Very Strange: The Slipstream Anthology "Oh, these stories!.... Don't stop until all have been read." -Booklist, starred review "Highlight: Lethem's crack-smoking aliens." -Entertainment Weekly Rewired: The Post-Cyberpunk Anthology "Sixteen inspiring, mind-altering stories...and every story in the bunch is a knockout." -BoingBoing |
