Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! DescriptionFull House is an enthralling new anthology that delves into the richly woven world of the Wild Cards universe, where ordinary people are transformed by an alien virus, gaining extraordinary abilities and sometimes, devastating deformities. Edited by the prolific George R. R. Martin, this special collection brings together a remarkable assemblage of tales that explore the multifaceted lives of these "Aces" and "Jokers" in a reality where humanity's potential is both a gift and a curse.
Set in a universe where an unexpected plague has rewritten the genetic code of millions, the stories in Full House capture the kaleidoscope of diverse experiences and extraordinary tales that range from heart-pounding action to poignant introspections. Readers are invited to enter a world where heroism, tragedy, and human nature interlace in a narrative tapestry rich with intrigue and unpredictability.
For the first time, these stories, which were previously available individually on Tor.com, have been brought together in a single volume, providing fans and new readers alike with a unified experience of this riveting saga. Each contribution from the acclaimed authors creates a unique perspective that enhances the depth and breadth of the Wild Cards world.
The collection features works from some of the most talented authors in speculative fiction, including:
Daniel Abraham
Cherie Priest
David D. Levine
Walter Jon Williams
Paul Cornell
Carrie Vaughn
Caroline Spector
Stephen Leigh
Melinda M. Snodgrass
And more!
Through their diverse storytelling prowess, these authors chart new territories in George R. R. Martin's visionary world, making Full House an essential addition for lovers of the Wild Cards series and a compelling entry point for those new to this imaginative realm.
