Zeppelin City

Zeppelin City

This is just too good to save for a Sunday link-dump. Tor.com has published Michael Swanwick and Elieen Gunn's collaborative short story, Zeppelin City online.(link below picture) It's made the Locus recomended reading list, and for good reason. Mr. Swanwick's web site, Flogging Babel, below right under favorites, gives some of the background. (apparently there was a bet involved) Treat yourself.

Mercury Fountain

This post is a very roundabout way of providing an introduction to Michael Swanwick's fiction and essays. In the Periodic Table of Science Fiction, click Hg (mercury), or any of the others that strike your fancy. His blog is Flogging Babel.

The Mercury Fountain was made by Calder and is now on exhibit in Spain.
