Geoffrey Ryman je uznávaným autorom science fiction, fantasy a slipstream fikcie. Jeho diela sa často zaoberajú komplexnými témami a skúmajú ľudskú skúsenosť prostredníctvom nekonvenčných žánrových prvkov. Rymanov štýl je charakteristický svojou nápaditosťou a schopnosťou vytvárať pútavé svety, ktoré podnecujú k zamysleniu nad našou vlastnou realitou. Jeho jedinečný prístup k žánrovej literatúre z neho robí významnú postavu modernej beletrie.

Menschen in extremen Situationen. Darf man seinen eigenen Körper verkaufen, wenn es ums Überleben geht? Sind im Krieg gegen einen übermächtigen Feind alle Mittel erlaubt?

Ein visionärer Kurzroman über die Zukunft der Biotechnologie, die uns längst eingeholt hat; die Legende eines Kriegers, von dem die Samurai viel lernen könnten; eine kambodschanische Geistergeschichte von allergrößter politischer Brisanz - Geoff Ryman geleitet uns in diesen sechs Erzählungen mit geradezu traumwandlerischer Sicherheit in exotische Gefilde, konfrontiert uns mit atemberaubender Schönheit und grenzenlosem Grauen.
