Synopses & ReviewsReview:"The solid, straightforward storytelling of the 19 stories and two poems that Anders (Futureshocks) gathers for this first in a projected series of all-original SF anthologies speculates on people's efforts to 'make sense of a changing world.' The contributors don't necessarily assume that humans will find it easy or even possible to cope with all the changes around and within them — but they'll try, which is just part of SF's continuing dialogue about the future. The collection's strongest pieces include Robert Charles Wilson's character study of an almost-artist in search of a muse ('YFL-500'), Mary A. Turzillo's dissection of love ('Pride'), Paul Di Filippo's witty extrapolation of electronic consumerism and democracy gone berserk ('Wikiworld') and Ken MacLeod's understated, moving report on the Second Coming ('Jesus Christ, Reanimator'). All the selections in this outstanding volume prompt thoughtful speculation about what kind of tomorrow we're heading toward and what we'll do when we get there."
