"Wondrous worlds await U.S. fans in this sensitively chosen, impeccably translated anthology of Continental European science fiction stories. These 'disciplined speculations' by European writers and their painstaking translators not only excite the mind, they move the heart." --Publishers Weekly (starred review) on The SFWA European Hall of Fame

Reviews
"A ground-breaking anthology. . . . The stories in The SFWA European Hall of Fame are not quite like any sf I've read before. Like much of the best sf, these stories tend to be allegorical, often absurdist, existential, and just plain weird. . . . You would be hard pressed to find another anthology whose works were more different from one another--and from the stories you're accustomed to--than this one. It's a mind-opening journey." --Cory Doctorow "Wondrous worlds await US fans in this sensitively chosen, impeccably translated anthology of Continental European science fiction stories.

These 'disciplined speculations' by European writers and their painstaking translators not only excite the mind, they move the heart., Quotes on James Morrow's latest novel, "The Last Witchfinder": "Here are storytelling, showmanship, and provocative book-club bait...all rolled into one inventive feat.-- Janet Maslin, "The New York Times" "James Morrow's novel about early American witchcraft pulls off so many dazzling fears of literary magic that in a different century he'd have been burned at the stake ... The result is a fantastical story mixed so cunningly with real-life details that your vision of America's past may never awaken from Morrow's spell." -- "Washington Post Book World" "The book is a treat for history lovers."-- "USA Today", "A ground-breaking anthology. . . .

Item as described, good price, well packaged, arrived slightly later than hoped (not in time for Christmas ) but the order was placed in a very busy shipping period. No issue with the seller’s speed of response and sending the item. Great seller!

Great seller with great communication! Item arrived complete, as described and for a good price. There was a bit of an issue with tracking the order at one point (not the seller's fault), but seller was proactive in reaching out to the carrier and myself to get everything back on track. Arrived when expected.

Quality and hard to find book that won't be released 'til January 2025 in the U.S.A.
Fantastic price.
Book was in a secure and protective package. Arrived a few days after I placed order and that was faster than I expected.
Seller is a fantastic communicator and proactive in regards to tracking status. I'd definitely buy from them in the future.
