Books by Anne Nicholls

Fourteen superb speculative stories by Anne Nicholls: "I love a good story: thrills, adventures, heroism, the writing of wrongs."From the introduction by Justina Robson: "Anne is at her finest when displaying and dissecting [the] viciously intertwined brambles of human making, showing how the dream of reality and its truth can be so far apart between one mind and another... All of these are beautifully written. Anne evokes setting and directs action with great skill so that the tales flow along at an effortless pace from daring beginning to satisfying end. I wish she would write more adventure stories!"
