Torgersen has gathered 15 of his top science fiction stories, including three \u003ci\u003eAnalog\u003c\/i\u003e magazine readers' choice winners, several multi-award winners and nominees, and several more which were previously included in different Years Best anthologies. All of them collected together here for the very first time. Fans of Torgersen's work from the pages of \u003ci\u003eAnalog\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eOrson Scott Card's Intergalactic Medicine Show\u003c\/i\u003e e-magazine will recognize his signature combination of compelling everyman drama with solidly-grounded science fiction concepts. Fans of authors such as Larry Niven and Robert A. Heinlein will appreciate Torgersen's attention to science-backed detail, and also the investment he makes in his people. All of which are rendered thoroughly human by Torgersen's touch with emotional stakes, an eye for how the big picture affects ordinary people hurled into extraordinary predicaments, and a stubborn insistence that there are always possibilities. Even in the darkest and most dire circumstances.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Brad R.
