What to expect

A delightful collection of Lois McMaster Bujold’s early stories and a comprehensive introduction by this New York Times bestselling author

“Protozoa” is a word from biology via the Greek meaning “first animals.” These short stories were indeed among the first life spontaneously generated in Lois McMaster Bujold’s nascent writing career. Along with an introduction by the author, this collection features the short stories “Barter,” “Garage Sale,” “The Hole Truth,” “Dreamweaver’s Dilemma,” and “Aftermaths.”

Critics Review

“[Bujold’s] work remains among the most enjoyable and rewarding in contemporary SF.”

Publishers Weekly, praise for the author

“Bujold is also head and shoulders above the ruck of current fantasists as well as science-fictionists.”

Booklist, praise for the author
