The Wind from a Burning Woman

In this unique collection, multiple Hugo and Nebula Award winner Greg Bear soars past the mere boundaries of space-time to universes beyond our own, where reality dissolves, where beauty and terror merge, where monstrous treason triggers planetary revenge, where ghosts lead a boy to a forbidden, wondrous destiny, where chaos rules, gargoyles live, and a stone messiah must rise, where cities walk, where a woman must conquer a starship built in infinite galaxies, and where, in an ultimate war, love and history will be the ultimate casualties. They are places where awe and mystery meet on the edge of science - and where stories are whispered on the wind.
