Rudy Rucker’s short fiction lets him chase ideas that might not sustain a full novel but are too good to leave alone. Jack and the Aktuals, or, Physical Applications of Transfinite Set Theory turns mathematical theory into adventure fiction. Good Night, Moon and Loco each find strange angles on familiar concepts.
Published between 2010 and 2016, these novellas and stories show Rucker in playful mode, experimenting with form and concept at a scale that lets him take bigger risks than his novels sometimes allow.
