Chicken Little (A science fiction novella)

"With Chicken Little, Cory Doctorow proves that science fiction is alive and kicking. If thereâ€™s a reason for that, itâ€™s because SF isnâ€™t about the future at all, but about the endless capacity of human beings to evolve in extraordinary ways."
Graham Edwards, Fantasy writer

"Cory Doctorowâ€™s novella â€˜Chicken Littleâ€™ [..] does an excellent job of updating and commenting on some of the themes that informed Pohl & Kornbluthâ€™s classic novel 'The Space Merchants'. Doctorowâ€™s updated high-tech take on Pohlâ€™s take on Jonathan Swiftâ€™s 'struldbrugs,' creatures who have immortality but not eternal youth, continuing to age through their extended lives, is particularly ingenious.
I wouldnâ€™t be surprised to see this one show up on an award ballot next year."
Gardner Dozois, Locus Magazine

A story with a product designer, jetpacks and an immortal quadrillionaire living in a vat.

"Chicken Little" also appears in the collection "With a Little Help".
