The Passing of the Dragon and Other Stories

by Unknown Author

This collection of thirteen short stories from Ken Liu explores the boundaries of imagination. In these tales, dragons soar over small towns, mech-animals dream of freedom, and techno-witches weave spells against a world ruled by machines. A painter wrestles with transcendence, an aging scorpion helps his daughter escape tradition, and a consciousness aboard a starship witnesses the death and rebirth of the cosmos. Blending science fiction and fantasy with meditations on identity, memory, and connection, these stories include: The Paper Menagerie, The Hidden Girl and Other Stories, and The Passing of the Dragon.
