Alien intelligence encounters real monsters in Antarctica. A lonely woman, drenched in pouring rain, begins to experience strange changes in her body. A research probe on Enceladus unexpectedly gains sentience, and first contact with an alien civilization could occur either in the depths of space or right here on Earth, where many conscious beings, hitherto unnoticed by humans, inhabit. A cyborg, devoid of pity, makes the most rational and ethical decision on Earth, and a conscience awakens in an autonomous combat drone.

You'll encounter all this and much more in the stories of Peter Watts, written over more than thirty years. Here, the rigor of scientific thought coexists with a refined style, and paradoxical plots coexist with aphoristic writing. These are worlds that offer a fresh perspective on the work of one of the darkest and most unusual writers working in the science fiction genre.
