He is now one of the most celbrated science fiction writers in the field, having won the field's top ward, the Hugo, for each of his last two novels. Now, for the first time, this illustrious author gathers all his short fiction into a single volume. This collection is truly the definitive Vinge, capturing his visionary ideas at their very best. It also contains a never-befored-published novella, "Fast Times at Fairmont High," which represents precisely what this collection encapsulates - bold, unique, challenging science fictional ideas brought to vivid life with compelling storytelling. Including such major pieces as "The Ungoverned" and "The Blabber," this sumptuous volume will satisfy any reader who loves the sense of wonder and the excitement of great SF. 3100319 2001 The Collected Stories of Vernor Vinge total:100|5:23|4:53|3:22|2:2|1:0| 100 397 166 7 167843 0312875843 9780312875848 99 7 3.97 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172356771m/167843.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/167843.The_Collected_Stories_of_Vernor_Vinge 4 1 false Thu Nov 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Fri Oct 19 22:48:21 -0700 2007 Mon Nov 12 20:01:10 -0800 2007
