A volume of visions of future wars, fought with weapons
out of nightmare, by today's top writers of military science fiction, as well as
some writers who are not usually associated with military SF, such as
best-selling writer Gregory Benford, and award-winning author Kristine Katherine
Rusch. Also present are Michael Z. Williamson, author of the strong selling
novels Freehold and The Weapon, award-winning author of Bolo Strike, William H.
Keith, and more. Through the centuries, weapons have changed radically, but the
soldier has remained much the same. But in the future, soldiers, too, may
undergo radical changes.
As editor Joe
Haldeman puts it, "Weapons are an extension of the soldier, and also an
extension of the culture or species that produced the soldier. And they are
sometimes more dangerous to the soldier than the enemy. . . ."
