Globalhead


Globalhead is a collection of short science fiction stories by Bruce Sterling.

This collection takes us beyond cyberpunk and into multiform visions of "Earth, the only truly alien planet", and along the way delivers classic hard science fiction, unique fantasy and sharp satire, ranging in time from ancient Assyria to a mutated France somewhere towards the end of the next millenium.
