Most writers' alternate universes are fun to visit, but Kage Baker's is one I wouldn't mind moving to: the Barsoom of Edgar Rice Burroughs . . . seen through the eyes of a writer far more poetic, vastly more scientifically literate, and with an infinitely superior sense of humor. Even as science-fictional taverns go, the Empress of Mars is memorable, a joint I hope I'll be able to return to many times. [Spider Robinson, author of Very Hard Choices]
