Praise for Wild Cards: "Perhaps the most original and provocative
of the shared worlds books." --Peter S. Beagle, author of The Last
Unicorn
"Delicious...Everything I hoped for in a new Wild Cards book. The
character interactions and plot twists have exactly the complexity,
surprise, and unsentimental realism I'd expect out of a George R.
R. Martin project." --Austin Grossman, author of Soon I Will be
Invincible on Inside Straight
"This is a wild ride of good, blood-pumping fun that packs a
surprisingly emotional punch for a book that looks on the surface
like just another superhero adventure." --Publishers Weekly on High
Stakes "Martin has assembled an impressive array of writers. . . .
Progressing through the decades, Wild Cards keeps its momentum to
the end." --Locus "The shared-world series known as Wild Cards has
had a long and illustrious history of contributors and
achievements." --SciFi.com "New readers and fans of the
long-running series will both love the fast-paced plotting and the
ever-expanding history of the Wild Card virus on this alternate
Earth, where even the superheroes are human." --Shelf Awareness on
Lowball "Highly recommended." --SFRevu on Lowball "Emotionally
powerful. Wild Cards deals up the variety of short fiction without
losing the continuity of a novel."--The Seattle Times "A
delightfully imaginative speculation."--The Toronto Star
