Description

Three stories with a common theme: the female psyche, multiplied and divided, says Greg Bear in his introduction to Women in Deep Time. Theres probably something Jungian in common with all three. At any rate, throughout my writing career (and for whatever reason) Ive been fascinated by the feminine voice.

Featured in this special collection are Sisters, Nebula Award finalist Scattershot, in which the inhabitants of many universes meet in limbo, and the Nebula Awardwinning Hardfought, in which engineered warriors redefine humanity.
