The BBC America series Orphan Black (2013-2017) won acclaim for its compelling writing, resonant themes and innovative special effects. This collection of essays analyses the series, covering topics including motherhood, surveillance culture, mythology, eugenics, and special effects, as well as the science behind cloning.

Lois McMaster Bujold has won a shelf full of awards - Hugos, Nebulas, and others - for both her science fiction and fantasy writing. Yet there has been a surprising dearth of serious critical writing about her output. This collection of fresh essays presents a variety of critical perspectives addressing many aspects of her writing. Attention is given to both her Miles Vorkosigan science fiction series and her Chalion and Sharing Knife fantasy series, as well as the books that fall outside these series.
