    About this ebook

    NO ONE writes science fiction, fantasy, or horror like A. R. Morlan. Her unique characters--her unusual perspective--her enormous imagination--all of these traits combine to produce absolutely "different" views of the past, present, and future. The eight novellas and short stories in this new collection highlight some of the best of her recent explorations of the near-future: "The Best Years of Our Lives," "Contingencies and Penti-Lope-Lope" (with John S. Postovit), "Ciné Rimettato," "Boog'/4 and the Endicaran Kluge," "Robin Williams, Speaking Spanish," "What Falls from the Life" (with John S. Postovit), "Etamin at East 47th," and "'Rillas."
