Description

WikiWorld contains a choice assortment of Di Filippos best and most recent work. The title story, a radical envisioning of near-future sociopolitical modes, received accolades from both Cory Doctorow and Warren Ellis. In addition, there are alternate history adventures such as Yes We Have No Bananas (which critic Gary Wolfe called a new kind of science fiction); homages to icons such as Stanislaw Lem (The New Cyberiad); collaborations with Rudy Rucker and Damien Broderick; and a posthuman odyssey (Waves and Smart Magma).

WikiWorld is the best of the best from this British Science Fiction Association Award-winning and Nebula, Hugo, Sturgeon, and World Fantasy Award-nominated author.
