The Silurian Tales #2

by Steven Utley, Steven Utley

The Silurian Tales Volume 2 The final volume of a master work by one of the SF genre's greatest short story writers. The stories in Steven Utley's Silurian Tales have appeared in Asimov's, Analog, SciFiction, F&SF, and Cosmos, and have been beguiling readers with glimpses of prehistoric life since the mid-1990s. These tales have been described by Brian Stableford in Science Fact and Science An Encyclopedia as "[t]he most elaborate reconstruction of a past era in recent speculative fiction." The series employs a variety of literary techniques in recounting the adventures and misadventures of a scientific expedition in the Paleozoic Era and also address some implications of the "many-worlds" hypothesis in quantum physics; several of the stories have been reprinted in Gardner Dozois' Year's Best Science Fiction anthologies and the Year's Best SF edited by David G. Hartwell and Kathryn Cramer.

[Lizabeth Tucker]

Mr. Cahill, brilliant and wealthy inventor of IntelliGelatintm, has encased himself in a protective shell as his body began to fail him, retreating from public view. Now he is being hunted by Mr. Selby and various government agencies over the illegal trade from the Paleozoic era.

It might not be the first collector done in by his obsession, but is he really the victim? Is he really gone? Will SpokesMomtm save the man’s most special collection? I really could see this happening, other than the space/time travel part. 4 out of 5.
