Praise for the Wild Cards series "Emotionally powerful. Wild Cards
deals up the variety of short fiction without losing the continuity
of a novel."--The Seattle Times "A delightfully imaginative
speculation."--The Toronto Star "Martin has assembled an impressive
array of writers. . . . Progressing through the decades, Wild Cards
keeps its momentum to the end." --Locus "The shared-world series
known as Wild Cards has had a long and illustrious history of
contributors and achievements." --SciFi.com "Perhaps the most
original and provocative of the shared worlds books." --Peter S.
Beagle, author of The Last Unicorn
"Delicious...Everything I hoped for in a new Wild Cards book. The
character interactions and plot twists have exactly the complexity,
surprise, and unsentimental realism I'd expect out of a George R.
R. Martin project." --Austin Grossman, author of Soon I Will be
Invincible on Inside Straight "Upbeat....Every chapter is solidly
entertaining. It's a treat for any fan of superhero stories."
--Publishers Weekly on Low Chicago "A genre-hopping, time-jumping,
crowd-pleasing chain novel under the curation of old master Martin,
he of Game of Thrones fame." --Kirkus Review on Low Chicago "New
readers and fans of the long-running series will both love the
fast-paced plotting and the ever-expanding history of the Wild Card
virus on this alternate Earth, where even the superheroes are
human." --Shelf Awareness on Lowball
