Future Artifacts
Audible Audiobook
– Unabridged
Brutal. Devastating. Dangerous.
Join an investigation into a cruel and heartless leader...crawl through filth and mud to escape biological warfare...team up with time-traveling soldiers faced with potentially life-altering instructions.
Kameron Hurley, award-winning author and expert in the future of war and resistance movements, has created eighteen exhilarating tales giving glimpses into the warfare of tomorrow.
A bleak future, yet there is hope for us. With Hurley's characteristic grim optimism, her characters fight for what they believe is right. They exhibit degrees of humanity only possible in the worst of circumstances. It is these characters, driven by a murky sense of honor and written with sincere, deep empathy, that make Future Artifacts: Stories a powerful collection you won't soon forget.

- Reviewed in the United States on May 18, 2022Format: PaperbackHaving completed a run of rather serious books of history and commentary, the chance to dive into a collection of fiction short stories by an author whose work I’d previously enjoyed (see my review of The Light Brigade) was too good to pass up. The eighteen tales in Future Artifacts: Stories are mostly sci-fi, seasoned with some mystery, noir, and fantasy, and I enjoyed working my way through each.
This review is based on an advance copy provided by the publisher for that purpose.
Some of the stories stuck with me longer than others, which I’ve found to be consistent with other collections such as this. Unlike some of those other collections, I didn’t find any stories here that seemed to be ‘filler.’ There is a great deal of variety in characters, tone, setting and plotlines, but throughout the author does an exceptional job of quickly and completely immersing the reader into the action.
Glancing back through the contents, I’d say my favorite pieces in no particular order were “The Skulls of Our Fathers,” “Leviathan,” “Unblooded,” “Antibodies,” “The Body Remembers,” and “Wonder Maul Doll.” I’ll be re-reading these and more from this collection in the future.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2022Format: KindleVerified PurchaseAs anyone who knows me can attest to, I'm a huge Kameron Hurley fan. I discovered her fiction in my mid-twenties and have eagerly awaited each new work.
This book is a collection of short stories that spans from the beginning of her career up to more recent works. They are all recognizable as her work. They are brutal, violent, visceral stories with an eye for body horror and bio punk. They are radical and feminist and queer. At their hearts they are about people and how they react to their environments. There can be a radical kindness and even optimism to these dark stories. They say people can be capable of great love as well as great cruelty.
If you've never read Kameron Hurley and anything I've rambled about sounds like it's up your alley then pick this up and give it a go. If you're on the fence, you could do worse than to try her work. Do yourself a favor and buy this book. I don't think you'll regret it.
