Pamela Sargent published the first novel in her “Venus” trilogy, Venus of Dreams, in 1986; it was followed by Venus of Shadows (1988) and Child of Venus (2001). For the first time, Dream of Venus collects the short fiction set against the backdrop of the author’s Venus novels, comprising four stories written after the trilogy had been completed. As Sargent writes in her Introduction: “Characters and stories existing in the interfaces of the novels began to speak to me.” These are tales that can be enjoyed both for themselves and by longtime fans of the Venus trilogy.
