I et ødelagt og giftig landskap eksisterer et samfunn i en gigantisk underjordisk silo. Verden utenfor er ugjestmild, utsikten dit er begrenset - og å snakke om den er forbudt. Men det er alltid noen som tør å håpe, noen som tør å drømme. Det er de som er farlige, det er de som smitter andre med sin optimisme. Straffen er enkel. De får det de ønsker seg: De får gå ut.

A collection of the year's best science fiction and fantasy short fiction selected by New York Times bestselling author of the Silo series Hugh Howey and series editor John Joseph Adams."These are dangerous stories. The kind that warp reality and threaten to change the world" warns guest editor Hugh Howey in his introduction. The Best American Science Fiction and Fantasy 2024 promises a treasure trove of audacious characters, daring worldbuilding, and twisted realties. A sibling duo of supernatural hitmen. A traveling spellbreaker and his trusty alligator mount. Superheroes registering for work. Sentient spaceships with an AI-human interface grow up together with their human pilots. From a Korean folk-tale retelling about the goddess of shamans, to a car, resurrected from obsolescence via automancy, for a road trip from California to Maine, these are stories that, for Howey, "challenged my worldview, that made me exercise new mental muscles, and that brought me to tears."The Best American Science Fiction and Fantasy 2024 includes A.R. CAPETTA - P. DJÈLÍ CLARK - JAMES S.A. COREY - AMAL EL-MOHTAR - ANDREW SEAN GREER - GRADY HENDRIX - ANN LECKIE - SAM J. MILLER REBECCA ROANHORSE - and others

"The first book in the acclaimed, New York Times best-selling trilogy, Wool is the story of mankind clawing for survival. The world outside has grown toxic, the view of it limited, talk of it forbidden. The remnants of humanity live underground in a single silo. But there are always those who hope, who dream. These are the dangerous people, the residents who infect others with their optimism. Their punishment is simple. They are given the very thing they want: They are allowed to go outside. After the previous sheriff leaves the silo in a terrifying ritual, Juliette, a mechanic from the down deep, is suddenly and inexplicably promoted to the head of law enforcement. With newfound power and with little regard for the customs she is supposed to abide, Juliette uncovers hints of a sinister conspiracy. Tugging this thread may uncover the truth . . . or it could kill every last human alive."-- Back cover.
