These great hollow globes of artificial super-metals, and artificial transparent adamant, ranged in size from the earliest and smallest structures, which were no bigger than a very small asteroid, to spheres considerably larger than the Earth. (Olaf Stapledon, STAR MAKER)

A Blink of the Screen
A new book for Terry Pratchett, a collection of shorter works set on the Discworld. Have you read it yet? What, it came out in 2012?
Ah, you see, this is an indication of how clueless the publishing industry is at times. This book is not available form a US publisher, despite Pratchett's popularity here (and elsewhere). Why? Because of a perception that short story collections "don't sell". Idiots.
