The newest anthology from multi-award being successful editor Jonathan Strahan, having stories occur futures wracked by the deluge, from some the best writers in SF, including Kim Stanley Robinson, Ken Liu, Paul McAuley, Kathleen Ann Goonan, Charlie Jane Anders, Lavie Tidhar, Jeffrey Ford, and James Morrow. We stand at the start of 1 of the greatest ecological disasters in the time of Man. The entire world is warming and seas are growing. We may refuse it, but we can't hide when the water comes. Already the roads of Miami flood regularly and Mick Jones appears more and more prescient when he sang that "London is drowning and I, I live by the river!" all those years ago. And yet drinking water is life. It brings change. Where a very important factor is wiped away, another goes up in its place. There has always been love and excitement in the roads of any drowned London or on stunning sailing towns spanning a submerged world, streamlined ships discovering as land gets ever before rarer. Drowned Worlds looks at the future we may have if the oceans surge, good or bad. Here you'll find testimonies of action, excitement, love, and, yes, warning and apocalypse. Experiences motivated by Ballard's The Drowned World, Sterling's Islands in the World wide web, and Ryman's The Child Garden. Experiences that allow that things may get worse, but remembers that such times also bring out the best in people.
