Publisher's summary

Brutal. Devastating. Dangerous.

Join an investigation into a cruel and heartless leader...crawl through filth and mud to escape biological warfare...team up with time-traveling soldiers faced with potentially life-altering instructions.

Kameron Hurley, award-winning author and expert in the future of war and resistance movements, has created eighteen exhilarating tales giving glimpses into the warfare of tomorrow.

A bleak future, yet there is hope for us. With Hurley's characteristic grim optimism, her characters fight for what they believe is right. They exhibit degrees of humanity only possible in the worst of circumstances. It is these characters, driven by a murky sense of honor and written with sincere, deep empathy, that make Future Artifacts: Stories a powerful collection you won't soon forget.

Brilliant and…

Chock full of important ideas. Kameron Hurley is not for the faint hearted. Her writing makes you feel and works your mental muscles, and she does away with the glossy shellac that covers most of our societal framework. It’s interesting to me that she writes so much about bugs, because her writing could be compared to burrowing insects that dig deep down below the surface and then bite & consume the pretty facade until they get to the heart of things.
The narration was perfect from both Ms Naeymi & Mr Granniss. I will definitely seek out Samara Naeymi’s work in the future.

Great stories, irritating narrator tic.

This is not about the stories. They're excellent. The main reader, though, has one of the most jarring upward-and slight-fall-lilts I've heard. It's like my old school New York Jewish relatives appear out of nowhere, when we're like on an alien spaceship or in a ecological dystopia, or with desert people. It's so bizarre. Otherwise, she's a good reader!
