Who does near-future fiction appeal to, and why?
It’s always great to receive a review of your work, and particularly when it appears on something as prestigious as the British Science Fiction Association’s critical journal Vector.
So, I was pleased to see the review by Allen Ashley of Extracting Humanity.
This part really made me smile with pleasure:
“Many of us authors strive to have a recognisable style and a recognisable palette of concerns; I would say that with this current collection and his two well-received previous offerings – “Eating Robots and Other Stories” (Silverwood Books, 2017) and “Bio-hacked & Begging and Other Stories” (Silverwood Books, 2019) – Stephen has succeeded in that aim.”
Applied science fiction – how stories can be used to decide what future we want?
