About the Author

Gregory Benford, was born on January 30, 1941 in Mobile, Alabama. He is a physicist and science fiction writer who earned his Ph.D. from the University of California, San Diego, in 1967. He is a Woodrow Wilson Fellow and a consultant for NASA. Benford's first novel "Deeper than the Darkness" mostrar mais (1970), which was revised as "The Stars in Shroud" (1978), gave him notice as a serious Science Fiction writer. His most popular work is "Timescape" (1980), which was the winner of the Nebula and John W. Campbell Memorial Awards; it presented a hard physics approach to limited time travel. "In the Ocean of Night" (1977), "Across the Sea of Suns" (1984), "Great Sky River" (1987), "Tides of Light" (1989) and "Furious Gulf" (1994) were all a part of the Galactic Cluster Series. He has also written the juvenile novel "Jupiter Project" (1975), "Against Infinity" (1983) and the thriller "Artifact" (1985). He has been nominated for 12 Nebula Awards (winning for "Timescape" and for the novelette, "If the Stars are Gods"). Benford, writing alternately with Bruce Sterling, produces science fact articles for the Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction. They took over after the death of regular columnist Isaac Asimov. He has also co-edited theme anthologies with Martin H. Greenburg, which include "Hitler Victorious" (1986), "Nuclear War" (1988), "What Might Have Been, Volume 1: Alternate Empires" (1988), "Volume 2: Alternate Heroes" (1989) and "Volume 3: Alternate Wars."

Críticas

Good SF about a window to new universe found accidentally by physicists. Are able to view complete life span of universe in only a few weeks. Got a little heavy in the scientific jargon in places, but good characters and story line.

Ce premier roman de la trilogie faisant suite au cycle de Fondation d'Isaac Asimov est écrit par Gregory Benford. Et le moins que l'on puisse dire est que cet auteur ne s'inscrit pas dans la droite ligne de son illustre prédécesseur. Isaac Asimov construisait ces romans sur des discussions entre les personnages et l'action était très souvent absente. Peu d'informations étaient données sur les technologies employées dans l'empire galactique, lui donnant ainsi une intemporalité qui permet de le lire cinquante ans après sa parution sans qu'il ne paraisse dater. De son côté, Gregory Benford a fait tout l'inverse, détaillant à l'extrême un Web de Trantor qui, vingt-cinq ans après sa parution, paraît complètement dépassé. C'est extrêmement décevant. Et cette déception est identique concernant l'intrigue, qui semble assez inexistante, l'auteur ayant choisi de focaliser son roman sur plusieurs tentatives d'attentats contre Hari Seldon, sans qu'il y ait un réel fil conducteur. Deux idées sauvent le roman, la première est l'utilisation des simulations informatiques de Jeanne d'Arc et de Voltaire et la seconde est une transfert temporaire d'esprit dans un corps étranger.
L'apport global de ce roman au cycle d'un des maîtres de la science-fiction est négligeable, une lecture à oublier au plus vite.

Review just for the titular story, which I listened to here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-6BwMJfSFl4&list=PLof7Pw9lOerMkjKlAl3sY41nVz...

The physics of the universe goes squirrely for a little while and scientists have no idea what to make of it.

This was both fascinating and funny, genuinely making me chuckle. I believe this was my first Benford and I was given the impression of a sensibility that combined Ted Chiang with Douglas Adams, which is as about as complimentary I can be without mentioning Philip K. Dick or Greg Egan. There is something highly enjoyable about softcore fun hard sci-fi.

I will absolutely be tracking this collection down in the future!
