Publisher's Synopsis
Over the past two decades, few authors
have garnered the critical acclaim and
fan following of Elizabeth Moon,
Nebula Award-winning author of The Speed of Dark,
The Deed of Paksenarrion, and Remnant Population.
Moon Flights, the definitive Elizabeth Moon short
story collection, represents the highlights of an
impressive career. Gathering together fifteen tales
of fantasy, alternative history, and science fiction,
Moon Flights features an original story, "Say Cheese,"
set in the Vatta's War cosmology, and an all-new
introduction by Anne McCaffrey, legendary creator
of the Dragonriders of Pern series.
Ranging from humorous high fantasy tales of "The
Ladies' Aid & Armor Society" to gritty, realistic
chronicles of far-flung militaristic space opera,
former marine Elizabeth Moon's storytelling mastery
and eye for painstaking detail is evidenced in each
of the tales contained herein. When honor, politics,
and personal relationships clash against backdrops of
explosive battles and larger-than-life action, the result
is the breathtaking and astounding fiction found in
Moon Flights.
