Locus Online: Reviews by Nick Gevers (990 words) |
 | At its worst, Zebrowskis writing is a diet of desiccated husks: The Number of the Sand is an inept lecture; The Last Science Fiction Story of the 20th Century a reflection on simulation and imagination is so dry that its the last science fiction story anyone should bother reading. |
| Zebrowskis characters are almost literally interchangeable: in fact, a standard trio named Bruno, Felix, and June pops up all the time, reusable cardboard cut-outs; but for consistency of comprehension and standpoint, this is not a bad technique. |
| Again and again, Zebrowski addresses the inevitability, or at least the overriding necessity, of the human species rising to a higher level of consciousness, a state beyond habitual war and genocide, and perhaps beyond the clutches of death itself. |
| The SF Site Featured Review: Swift Thoughts (701 words) |
| George Zebrowski was born in Austria in 1945 to Polish parents displaced by the upheavals surrounding WWII. |
| George Zebrowski's Swift Thoughts is full of science fiction stories that will leave you questioning both yourself and the world around you. |
| George Zebrowski is interested in these kinds of questions, and his stories use SF as a means to examine them in entertaining ways. |
