Those were Neil Armstrong’s immortal phrases when he became the 1st human being to stage onto another world. All at once, the horizon extended; the people was no more Earthbound. Edge of Infinity can be an exhilarating brand-new SF anthology that talks about the next huge step for humankind: the leap from our house world out into the Solar Program. From the eerie transformations in Pat Cadigan’s Hugo-award-winning ‘The Girl-Thing Who WENT for Sushi’ towards the frontier soul of Sandra McDonald and about Edge of Infinity Stephen D. Covey’s ‘The Road to NPS,’ and in the grandiose vision of Alastair Reynolds’ ‘Vainglory’ towards the workaday familiarity of Kristine Kathryn Rusch’s ‘Safety Lab tests,’ the thirteen tales within this anthology span the whole of the human condition in their race to colonize Earth’s nearest neighbours. Featuring tales by Hannu Rajaniemi, Alastair Reynolds, Wayne S. A. Corey, John Barnes, Stephen Baxter, Kristine Kathryn Rusch, Elizabeth Carry, Pat Cadigan, Gwyneth Jones, Paul McAuley, Sandra McDonald, Stephen D. Covey, An Owomoyela, and Bruce Sterling, Advantage of Infinity is definitely hard SF experience at its greatest and most exhilarating. Writer bio: Jonathan Strahan can be an editor and anthologist.
