Synopsis
THE LITERARY ADVENTURE INSPIRED BY LEGENDARY BAND RUSH CONTINUES
An anthology of stories inspired by the music of Rush, written by notable, bestselling and award-winning authors.
The music of Rush, one of the most successful bands in music history, is filled with fantastic stories, evocative images, thought-provoking futures and pasts. In this anthology, notable, bestselling and award-winning writers each chose a Rush song as the spark for a new story, drawing inspiration from the visionary trio Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and Neil Peart.
From stark dystopian struggles to uplifting triumphs of the human spirit, the characters populating 2113 find strength while searching for hope in a world that is repressive, dangerous or just debilitating bland. Most of these tales are science fiction, but some are fantasies, thrillers, even edgy mainstream. Many of Rush's big hits are represented, as well as deeper cuts... with wonderful results. This anthology also includes the seminal stories that inspired the Rush classics 'Red Barchetta' and 'Roll the Bones', as well as Kevin J. Anderson's novella sequel to the ground-breaking Rush album 2112.
2113 contains stories by New York Times bestselling authors Kevin J. Anderson, Michael Z. Williamson, David Mack, David Farland, Dayton Ward and Mercedes Lackey; award winners Fritz Leiber, John McFetridge, Steven Savile, Brad R. Torgersen, Ron Collins, David Niall Wilson and Brian Hodge, as well as many other authors with their imaginations on fire.
