Review
Whether trolling cyberspace, as in 'Solip:System,' or delving into the landscapes of meat, as in 'Erogenoscape,' Williams exhibits cunning, dexterity, and tenaciousness. I was particularly enchanted by one of the two original stories herin, 'The Bad Twin,' a twisted time-travel caper that nearly approaches David Gerrold's The Man Who Folded Himself (1973). With a forward by our own Gardner Dozois and the boldly sensual inkings by Omar Rayyan, this volume merits your attention. --Paul Di Filippo, Asimov's SF Magazine, Feb. 1998
