The cover story from the Jan/Feb issue of Analog Magazine, The Quantum Magician by Derek Künsken, is a delightful first installment in a hard sci-fi serial that opens in classic Seven Samurai style and plays at the edges of what we know, or what we think we know, about physics. The science is intriguing but the fiction is entirely engaging. I look forward to following the crazy cast of characters through the ongoing adventure!
