Thanks for visiting infinity plus,
home of additional stories set in the Veniss Underground Milieu.
Click on a link below to read more Veniss stories, including "Quin's
Shanghai Circus," an early version of the first chapter of Veniss
Underground.
Veniss stories:
- Balzac's
War. In the far future, humankind fights a deadly war against
their own bioneered creations who can bring back your loved one as
aghost in flesh-and-bone... Plus a specially written afterword.
- Ghost in the Machine.
Living on, ghosts in the machine, they should be living books, vital
links to the past. Instead: mere play things. Powerless. Almost...
- A
Heart for Lucretia. The story of a brother, a sister, and a Flesh
Dog, and how two found a heart for the third. Plus a specially written
afterword.
- Quin's
Shanghai Circus. He always had artistic dreams. And in a world
where children play with genetic playdoh, creating creatures that
move and breathe, all is malleable, all is art. Far-future sf meets
dark fantasy, mediated by VanderMeer's vivid, poetic imagination;
with an afterword by the author.
Other stories:
- Dradin,
in Love. He saw her in a window, by accident, and he fell in love
immediately. But how could he, a penniless ex-missionary, ever hope
to woo her? A major feature to mark publication of City of Saints
and Madmen: a complete novella plus a non-fiction piece on one of
the inspirations for the Ambergris stories.
- Mahout.
A powerful and moving story of man and beast -- a mahout and his
elephant, Mary (she'd never hurt anybody before...). Plus a specially
written afterword.
- Three Days
in a Border Town. The border town manifested itself to you at
the end of a second week in the desert. You could have ignored it
as false...
