Summary

Twelve science fiction stories about the oncoming future, each of them representing a possible glimpse of what could be just around the corner... or much further down the corridor. These stories previously appeared in places like Clarkesworld Magazine, The Year's Best SF, Subterranean Magazine, and in various anthologies. They deal with the future of war, our climate, and technology's effect on our lives.

very good

the future of society, one ruled by branding and advertising, one with impressive technological progress, in a set of not necessarily connected short stories.
very good science fiction short stories, interesting and very complex in details.
you get bursts of high tension action, descriptive passages which don’t take up a lot of space, just remain relevant, and philosophical introspection, definitely in the same collection, and often in the same story.
this made my favourites shelf super fast.
