Publisher Description
Across seven original tales from master of science fiction Peter F. Hamilton, Manhattan in Reverse offers captivating glimpses into incredible worlds – with characters old and new.
'Each short story has enough ideas for a whole novel' – Ken Follett, author of The Pillars of the Earth
Following the events of Judas Unchained, Paula Myo returns. In the title story Manhattan in Reverse, the detective is on the case of a species believed to be without sentience – until it attacks the human colonisers. And, in The Demon Trap, Paula is dispatched to investigate a terrorist attack – and a motive that will be hard to unravel. Elsewhere, Watching Trees Grow tells of a murder in an alternative 1800s Oxford, and The Forever Kitten raises questions of eternal youth – and the sacrifices required to pursue it.
With all his usual brilliantly conceived storytelling, Peter F. Hamilton’s talents are on full display in Manhattan in Reverse.
Customer Reviews
Manhattan in Reverse
An engaging and enjoyable bonus to satiate my craving for more of Hamilton's work between reading (and re-reading) his epics. I started my Peter F Hamilton experience with Pandora's Star and have never enjoyed science fiction so much. If you like science fiction you MUST read all his stuff. Even if you are not a scifi fan it would be difficult not to be drawn in and absorbed by the characters and story telling skill.
