Book Description
An unabridged collection of the “best of the best” science fiction stories published in 2012 by current and emerging masters of the genre, edited by Allan Kaster. In “Invisible Men,” by Christopher Barzak, a maid in an inn encounters the Invisible Man who makes her an offer to be more than she is in this quasi-retelling of H.G. Wells’ famous story. In this year’s Nebula Award winner for best novelette, “Close Encounters,” by Andy Duncan, an old man is hounded by reporters about the stories he used to tell of an alien who took him into space and the dog he brought back with him. “Bricks, Sticks, Straw,” by Gwyneth Jones, follows virtual scientists forced to survive within their remotes when a young science team on Earth loses remote contact with their telepresences on Jupiter’s moons. In “Arbeitskraft,” by Nick Mamatas, Friedrich Engels strives to spread class revolution as a labor organizer for factory cyborg matchstick girls. “The Man,” by Paul McAuley, is a Jackaroo tale about a solitary woman, living in a cabin on the planet Yanos, whose life is interrupted by the sudden appearance of a naked man at her door. In “Nahiku West,” by Linda Nagata, set in the author’s Nanotech Succession sequence, officer Zeke Choy investigates an accident involving an illegal enhancement which was used to save a life. “Tyche and the Ants,” by Hannu Rajaniemi, showcases the plight of a young girl hidden on the moon by her parents, along with grags and Brain, as robotic ants have come from the Great Wrong Place to take her away. In “Katabasis,” by Robert Reed, human adventurers on a journey in an inhospitable high-gravity region of the Great Ship must use porters, evolved for massive worlds, to aid them. “The Contrary Gardener,” by Christopher Rowe, tells of the tough decisions a talented gardener in a society which genetically grows some crops for ammunition must come to when she’s recruited for the war effort. Finally, in “Scout,” by Bud Sparhawk, a reconstructed marine is deployed to a planet occupied by the Shardies to reconnoiter by making use of his “turtle” enhancements to avoid detection.

Book Description
“A delectable stew of fantasy, horror, hard science fiction, and alternate history in 27 sumptuous stories and one powerful novella. . . . Stunning” (Publishers Weekly). Space opera. Superheroes. Horror and fairy tales. What if there was a multi-genre story collection available from a Nebula-award winning author? Eric James Stone’s immersive collection, The Humans in the Walls, contains twenty-seven tales of science fiction and fantasy, ranging from hard science fiction to fairy-tale fantasy, from humor to horror. Within these pages you’ll find supernatural beings, uploaded brains, psychic powers, space colonies, alternate timelines, aliens, superheroes, and giant AI starships that pay little attention to The Humans in the Walls. Each story contains special commentary by the author.

Book Description
Beck Garrison lives on a seastead — an archipelago of constructed platforms and old cruise ships, assembled by libertarian separatists a generation ago. She's grown up comfortable and sheltered, but starts doing odd jobs for pocket money. To her surprise, she finds that she's the only detective that a debt slave can afford to hire to track down the woman's missing sister. When she tackles this investigation, she learns things about life on the other side of the waterline — not to mention about herself and her father — that she did not expect. And she finds out that some people will stop at nothing to protect their secrets . . .

Book Description
Rohit Shetty Indian Literary Industry has come up with many authors who have received both national and international acclaim but amidst this, poetry has been sidelined and publishers do not publish poetry stating the lack of market, and as a result many talented writers or I must say poets fail to get their books out or get their poems published. First Step Publishing realises this situation and has come up with a collection of poems from poets across India, poets coming from all walks of life, Doctors, Engineers, Bankers, Students, Homemakers, Previously published poets, many to be published for the first time. Minds@Work is an annual book by First Step Publishing. Minds@Work 2 had no topic or content to be printed till I had a casual discussion with one of the entrants over coffee and realised that an anthology of poems can be done for this edition, so an online campaign was started calling in for entries. We were overwhelmed with the kind of response we received and had a tough time in selecting poets as every entry deserves to be a part of Minds@Work2. I would like to thank the entire team of First Step Publishing for making a casual talk a working reality and also Design Fishing for the beautiful cover and our associates, Speak Out Newspaper for Branding and Promotions and First Step Corp for designing and developing our Android App. In the end my love and warm regards to all the readers
