Stephen Baxter’s bestselling novel, Anti-Ice, is a drama of a different nineteenth century. First published in 1993 as an alternate history, it was quickly embraced by the emerging steampunk genre. Now with Newton’s Aliens, he has created one piece continuing the novel’s timeline, and two other pieces exploring an alternative version of that universe: an alternate history of an alternate history. Previously collected only in a limited edition, these three stories expand the Anti-Ice world and stretch the imagination.
