Everything has been completely wiped—like a newborn.”\u003cbr\u003e“Is she dangerous?” The second voice was lower, clipped.\u003cbr\u003e“I hardly think so,” answered the first voice, dismissively. “Not now, at any rate!” There was a short laugh. Then the door handle turned, and the woman lying on the white bed realised they were talking about her.\u003cbr\u003eIn Vera Loy’s second collection of science fiction stories, a woman wakes to discover she knows nothing– except how to kill; the latest version androids prove to be all too human; and humanity discovers that only women can explore deep space, and remain sane.\u003cbr\u003eSplinters of Glass contains five short stories, each representing a different sci-fi sub-genre. Tabula Rasa (Spy-fi), Kate and Peter (Bardpunk), Immortality (Biopunk), To Boldly Go (Space Exploration), and Space Opera.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vera Loy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47114034905328,"sku":"2940154142301","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940154142301_p0.jpg?v=1764069353","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940154142301","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
