Description: "Like rock, speculative fiction is larger than life, there's no limit on where it can take you. And neither is- even now- fully respectable. Electrifying stories with the drive, the emotion, the soul of rock. Headliners and rising stars take the stage with their greatest hits. Find a place, grab some space...get ready to rock!"--P. [4] of cover.
