Twember is Steve Rasnic Tem’s first ever collection of science fiction stories, gathering together the very best of his SF from across a distinguished career, drawing on work from 1980 right through to the current day. With four stories that originally appeared in Asimov’s and others from Interzone, Destinies, and elsewhere, Twember showcases Tem at his best. The book also features two brand new pieces written especially for this collection.
“Steve Rasnic Tem is a rare treasure, waiting to be discovered by many more of the world’s most sophisticated and mature readers.” – Dan Simmons, author of Hyperion
“…a near-perfect short story.” – Scientifically Bookish (of A Letter for the Emperor)
“A heartbreaking story of the loving ties between family members, and of mortality, postponed yet never repealed. And of hope.” – Lois Tilton, Locus Online (of Visitors)
