Book excerpt: A young trader with the secret to Earth’s destruction gets drawn into a mystery surrounding telepathically trained soldiers in this classic techno-fantasy. Sparrow’s my name. Trader. Deal-maker. Hustler, some call me. I work the Night Fair circuit, buying and selling pre-nuke videos from the world before. I know how to get a high price, especially on Big Bang collectibles. But the hottest ticket of all is information on the Horsemen—the mind-control weapons that tilted the balance in the war between the Americas. That’s the prize I’m after. But it seems I’m having trouble controlling my own mind. The Horsemen are coming . . . A Finalist for the Hugo, Locus, Nebula, and World Fantasy Awards Praise for Bone Dance “Style and gusto and fireworks. Great stuff.” —Neil Gaiman “Bull’s high-voltage prose propels this journey of self-discovery into a class by itself. Recommended where cyberpunk and/or new wave sf is popular.” —Library Journal “A winning book.” —Publishers Weekly “Mixing symbolism from the Tarot deck, voodoo mythology, and a finely detailed vision of life and technology after the nuclear war, Bull has come up with yet another winner.” —School Library Journal
