Ruins Extraterrestrial

'The distant past meets the distant future in new stories set within ruins throughout the Universe. Travel with explorers who encounter ancient artifacts and abandoned cities. Some ruins are harmless, others are not....

Go carefully.'

This seems like it has the potential to be a fantastic collection of archaeological science fiction. I've inserted it at the top of my Amazon.com wish list.
