Product Information

A worldwide diaspora has left a quarter of a million people at the foot of a space station. Cultures collide in real life and virtual reality. The city is literally a weed, its growth left unchecked. Life is cheap, and data is cheaper. When Boris Chong returns to Tel Aviv from Mars, much has changed. Boris's ex-lover is raising a strangely familiar child who can tap into the datastream of a mind with the touch of a finger. His cousin is infatuated with a robotnik -- a damaged cyborg soldier who might as well be begging for parts. His father is terminally-ill with a multigenerational mind-plague. And a hunted data-vampire has followed Boris to where she is forbidden to return. Rising above them is Central Station, the interplanetary hub between all things: the constantly shifting Tel Aviv; a powerful virtual arena, and the space colonies where humanity has gone to escape the ravages of poverty and war. Everything is connected by the Others, powerful alien entities who, through the Conversation -- a shifting, flowing stream of consciousness -- are just the beginning of irrevocable change. At Central Station, humans and machines continue to adapt, thrive ... and even evolve. 'It's all of science fiction distilled into a single book.' -- Warren Ellis, author of Transmetropolitan and Gun Machine

Reviews
Advance Praise for Central Station "If you want to know what SF is going to look like in the next decade, this is it." --Gardner Dozois, editor of the best-selling Year's Best Science Fiction series "A dazzling tale of complicated politics and even more complicated souls. Beautiful." --Ken Liu, Nebula, Hugo, and World Fantasy winner and author of The Grace of Kings "If Nalo Hopkinson and William Gibson held a séance to channel the spirit of Ray Bradbury, they might be inspired to produce a work as grimy, as gorgeous, and as downright sensual as Central Station ." --Peter Watts, author of Blindsight "Lavie Tidhar weaves the threads of classic and modern science fiction tropes with the skills of a gene surgeon and creates a whole new landscape to portray a future both familiar and unsettling. A unique marriage of Philip K. Dick, William Gibson, C. L. Moore, China Miéville, and Larry Niven with 50 degrees of compassion and the bizarre added. An irresistible cocktail." --Maxim Jakubowski, author of the Sunday Times bestselling Vina Jackson novels "Like all good science fiction, the linked stories of Central Station are really about the here and now we live in. Most urgently, they are about just who 'we' might be, here on this overcrowded, contested, Anthropocene world that we all must share. Lavie Tidhar writes in generous detail and expansive vision of a New, and old Jerusalem, and of the many possible 'we's who live there." --Carter Scholz, author of Radiance On Osama "Bears comparison with the best of Philip K. Dick" -- The Financial Times "Exceptional" -- World Literature Today On The Violent Century "A tour de force" --James Ellroy, bestselling author of L.A. Confidential "A stunning masterpiece" -- The Independent "A new masterpiece" -- Library Journal "Unforgettable" -- Jewish Standard On A Man Lies Dreaming "A twisted masterpiece" -- Guardian "Unmissable" -- The Telegraph "Incredible" -- Tor.com On The Bookman "An emerging master" --Locus "A steampunk treasure" -- SFF World "Sparks like a Roman candle" -- Publishers Weekly, Advance Praise for Central Station "If you want to know what SF is going to look like in the next decade, this is it." --Gardner Dozois, editor of the bestselling Year's Best Science Fiction series "A dazzling tale of complicated politics and even more complicated souls.

Tidhar always stuns me." --Kij Johnson, author of At the Mouth of the River of Bees "Central Station boasts complexity without complication, sharp prose, and a multi-dimensional world." --Jeffrey Ford, author of The Girl in the Glass "Lavie Tidhar weaves the threads of classic and modern science fiction tropes with the skills of a gene surgeon and creates a whole new landscape to portray a future both familiar and unsettling. A unique marriage of Philip K. Dick, William Gibson, C. L. Moore, China Miéville, and Larry Niven with 50 degrees of compassion and the bizarre added.

Lavie Tidhar writes in generous detail and expansive vision of a New, and old Jerusalem, and of the many possible 'we's who live there." --Carter Scholz, author of Radiance "Tidhar weaves strands of faith and science fiction into a breathtaking and lush family history of the far future." --Max Gladstone, author of Three Parts Dead "a standout, absorbing, well realised sci-fi world, with characters who feel like they're about to stroll off the page and take you for a cup of arak ." -- Sci-Fi and Fantasy Reviews "If you're looking for something a little more philosophical and thoughtful than the usual fare in the genre, look no further than this book . . . a fantastic read." -- Strange Currencies On Osama "Bears comparison with the best of Philip K. Dick" -- The Financial Times "Exceptional" -- World Literature Today On The Violent Century "A tour de force" --James Ellroy, bestselling author of L.A.
