- See how it all began! In Before They Were Giants, editor James L.
Sutter collects the first published stories of 15 of science fiction and
fantasy's most important authors, including winners of the prestigious Hugo and
Nebula awards, New York Times bestsellers, and members of the Science
Fiction Hall of Fame. Along with these often rare or never-before-anthologized
stories, all 15 authors provide brand-new retrospective critiques and interviews
discussing the stories' geneses, how publication affected their lives, and what
they know now about writing that they wish they'd known then.
- Contributors include Ben Bova, Charles Stross, China Miéville, Cory
Doctorow, David Brin, Greg Bear, Joe Haldeman, Kim Stanley Robinson, Larry
Niven, Michael Swanwick, Nicola Griffith, Piers Anthony, R. A. Salvatore, Spider
Robinson, and William Gibson.
