Disturbed Universes

David L. Clements is an astrophysicist and SF writer, continuing the long-standing tradition of scientists who write science fiction. He works at Imperial College London, where he specialises in observational cosmology and extragalactic astronomy. His fiction has been published widely in various venues, including Clarkesworld, the science journal Nature, and, on three occasions, Analog.

Disturbed Universes collects his science fiction to date and includes two brand new stories.

“Stories spun from starlight... Clements’ fiction is suffused with an astronomer’s sense of wonder at the universe we find ourselves exploring. An unmissable collection.” – Stephen Baxter

“Cutting-edge, thought-provoking SF from one of genre’s leading scientists.” – Liz Williams
