Since its debut in 1996, Starlight has been recognized as the preeminent original anthology of science fiction and fantasy. Its stories have won the Nebula Award, the Sturgeon Award, and the Tiptree Award. Starlight 1 itself won the World Fantasy Award for Best Anthology. The series represents the best new short fiction in fantasy and SF.Now, with Starlight 3, award-winning editor Patrick Nielsen Hayden offers a new serving of powerful, original stories . . . from hard SF authors like Stephen Baxter and Geoffrey A. Landis; acclaimed fantasists like Jane Yolen, Susan Palwick, and Brenda Clough; critically-celebrated SF talents like Terry Bisson, D. G. Compton, Colin Greenland, and Maureen F. McHugh; and up-and-coming writers like Cory Doctorow (last year's winner of the John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer), Andy Duncan, Madeleine E. Robins, Alex Irvine, Greg van Eekhout, and Susanna Clarke. And, opening the volume, a major new story by the winner of last year's Nebula Award for his story in Starlight 2, Ted Chiang.Some are playful, some rigorous, or exuberant, or melancholy; some are set in the world of today, and some amidst the farthest stars, or in worlds that never were. The tales in Starlight 3 manifest the breadth and scope of SF and fantasy today.Hayden, Patrick Nielsen is the author of 'Starlight 3' with ISBN 9780312867805 and ISBN 0312867808.
