A new collection of stories, including some that have
never before been seen, from the New York Times
best-selling author of the Silo trilogy
Hugh Howey is known for crafting riveting and immersive
page-turners of boundless imagination, spawning millions of
fans worldwide, first with his best-selling novel
Wool, and then with other enthralling works such as
Sand and Beacon 23.
Now comes Machine Learning, an impressive collection
of Howey’s science fiction and fantasy short fiction,
including three stories set in the world of Wool, two
never-before-published tales written exclusively for this
volume, and fifteen additional stories collected here for
the first time. These stories explore everything from
artificial intelligence to parallel universes to video
games, and each story is accompanied by an author’s note
exploring the background and genesis of each story.
Howey’s incisive mind makes Machine Learning: New and
Collected Stories a compulsively readable and
thought-provoking selection of short works—from a modern
master at the top of his game.
