| Abstract
|
:
|
"Ten visionary authors tackle a single provocative theme...Death comes quickly and painfully to most of the victims when the Wild Card virus strikes. But others are transformed: some horribly, into grotesque 'jokers'; a lucky few into superhuman 'aces'. The alien virus arrived just after World War II--and Earth would never be the same." -- Dust jacket.
