“Science fiction has always said—and continues to insist—that humankind does have a future, a future that stretches far ahead for hundreds, thousands, and even millions of years. This deeply held conviction that the human journey has only just begun is the most important, and the most wondrous, prediction of all.” —Robert J. Sawyer

A 225,000-word collection of articles,reviews, and speeches about science fiction. From talks at venues including the Library of Congress through columns in SF magazines to pieces published in fanzines, Sawyer looks at all aspects of the field he loves so much.

“Robert J. Sawyer is one of the most inventive writers in current SF."—Asimov’s Science Fiction

“Sawyeris the rarest sort of figure in contemporary Canadian writing: a Canadian genre author deeply loyal to both his genre and his Canadian identity.” —The Globe and Mail

Robert J. Sawyer has won both the Hugo and Nebula Awards for Best Novel of the Year. The ABC TV series Flashforward was based on his novel of the same name. A member of theOrder of Canada, he lives near Toronto.

"A a wonderful anthology of columns, addresses, introductions, interviews, profiles, reviews and autobiographical sketches . . .Sawyer has all the qualities you could want in a guide, being well read, perceptive and a keen and generous critical writer. You can dip into this book at any point and come away with some insight that will stick."—Alex Good, TorontoStar
