About This Item
San Francisco: Night Shade Books, 2010. First printing, Trade paperback, Near Fine,. Raphael Lacoste. San Francisco: Night Shade Books:, 2010. First printing, Trade paperback, Near Fine, 359 pp.<br/> Cover artwork by: Raphael Lacoste "What Happens when bio-terrorism becomes a tool for corporate profits? And what happens when said bio-terrorism forces humanity to the cusp of post-human evolution? In The Windup Girl, award-winning author Paolo Bacigalupi returns to the world of "The Calorie Man"( Theodore Sturgeon Memorial Award-winner, Hugo Award nominee, 2006) and "Yellow Card Man" (Hugo Award nominee, 2007) in order to address these questions." I've read several Bacigalupi short stories and have been very impressed. He's literate and different - those can be rare qualities in contemporary genre fiction.
