This huge new collection of the short stories of one of Science Fiction’s most beloved and popular writers is sure to please his millions of fans. The volume contains 24 stories, Card’s new introductions for each story, and commentary on his life and work.

Like the earlier Maps in A Mirror, this collection is a definitive retrospective of the short fiction career of the writer that The Houston Post called “the best writer science fiction has to offer.”

"This hefty, definitive collection contains all of Card's short fiction… A series of introductions and afterwords offering Card's thoughts on his life and his writing are as absorbing as the stories.”

--Publishers Weekly on Maps In A Mirror
 
"The award-winning author of Ender's Game, Speaker for the Dead, and the "Alvin Maker" series demonstrates his talent for shorter fiction in this collection of 46 stories that range from fantasy and sf to horror and theological speculation...Detailed introductions and afterwords reveal insights into the thought processes of one of the genre's most convincing storytellers. An important volume.”

--Library Journal on Maps In A Mirror
