Con l'impazienza di scoprire le carte e smettere di giocare all'indifferenza, con un invito tanto atteso per un caffè, con un desiderio annegato in un bicchiere di spumante, quando alla fine della festa tutti se ne sono andati.

With The Best Science Fiction of the Year: Volume 3, award-winning editor Neil Clarke provides a year-in-review and 27 of the best stories published by both new and established authors in 2017.

These stories contain a cross section of narratives, people, and places: an unusual couple requests to be flown to a remote island near Alaska; a series of beached whales vex a US military officer in Vietnam and cause unrest in a local village; an ecoterrorist’s bomb at an upscale ski resort has unintended consequences; and mysterious killings thought to be the work of a monster in Japan turn out to be something much more real.
