From the Bookshelf: Raft

When I’ve happened on volumes of the British “SF Masterworks” reprint series, I’ve seemed to find myself either looking at books I already have other editions of or thinking I know just enough about the titles they don’t grab me. Finding copies of Raft by Stephen Baxter in a large used-and-remaindered bookstore, though, was happening on a third category at last. I’d known it to be one of Baxter’s early novels; the introduction by Alastair Reynolds in this edition explained it to be Baxter’s first, establishing themes he’d keep developing in later works (a number of which I’ve read).
