eBook Description: No room here to be clever about our fabulous October/November double issue, so let�s begin: Ted Kosmatka and Michael Poore contribute a literary tale of loss and personal redemption amidst the curious life cycle of an insect known as the "Blood Dauber"; Heather Lindsley, making her Asimov�s debut, tells of the troubles experienced by time-traveling wage-slaves who answer the eternal question of just "Where the Time Goes"; R. Garcia y Robertson returns to his Burroughs-inspired milieu for a jaunt during "Wife Stealing Time"; Damien Broderick channels the inventive spirit of classic Zelazny in his tale "Flowers of Asphodel"; Ian Creasey describes the peculiar weltschmerz felt by a man who must leave his body behind to travel the stars in "Erosion"; Robert Reed contributes a sure SF award-nominee with his haunting "Before My Last Breath"; William Barton pens a thrilling interstellar adventure in his Standard ARM series, trawling "The Sea of Dreams"; Christopher Barzak shares the tragic story of "The Ghost Hunter�s Beautiful Daughter"; Elissa Malcohn laments the discovery of a peculiar bit of "Flotsam"; and Nancy Kress shares her latest, "Deadly Sins."
We present a fascinating interview with physicist Michio Kaku in a brand new Thought Experiments column by Mary Robinette Kowal; Robert Silverberg, in Reflections, continues to offer insights into the invention of his popular Majipoor series in "Building Worlds II"; Norman Spinrad brings us "On Books" and James Patrick Kelly offers a new On the Net; plus an array of poetry you�re sure to enjoy.
