Beagle, author of <i>The Last Unicorn<br></i><br>Delicious...Everything I hoped for in a new Wild Cards book. The character interactions and plot twists have exactly the complexity, surprise, and unsentimental realism I'd expect out of a George R. R. Martin project. --Austin Grossman, author of <i>Soon I Will be Invincible </i>on<i> Inside Straight</i> <p/>"This is a wild ride of good, blood-pumping fun that packs a surprisingly emotional punch for a book that looks on the surface like just another superhero adventure." -- <i>Publishers Weekly</i> on <i>High Stakes</i> <p/>"Emotionally powerful. Wild Cards deals up the variety of short fiction without losing the continuity of a novel."--<i>The Seattle Times</i> <p/>"A delightfully imaginative speculation."--<i>The Toronto Star <p/></i>"Longtime fans will enjoy surprise appearances by previous notables, sometimes in drastically altered circumstances, and this entry also works well as a standalone. It's a treat for any fan of superhero stories." -- <i>Publishers Weekly </i>on <i>Low Chicago <p/></i>"The shared-world series known as Wild Cards has had a long and illustrious history of contributors and achievements." --SciFi.com <p/>"New readers and fans of the long-running series will both love the fast-paced plotting and the ever-expanding history of the Wild Card virus on this alternate Earth, where even the superheroes are human." --<i>Shelf Awareness </i>on<i> Lowball<br></i><br>"Highly recommended." -- <i>SFRevu</i> on<i> Lowball</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>GEORGE R.
