    About this ebook

    Solar Tales is a collection of short stories and novellas that present imaginative journeys to planets orbiting suns of different colors. In these tales, kings and queens invite people to a tea party in a violet sun world, theater students put on a play for tourists under a brilliant white sun, explorers experience transformation on a dark star planet, plus many more adventures.

    Solar Tales is the ebook collection of the author’s books Under the Alchemical Sun, Land of the White Sun, Purple Pop Party, and Sparks, originally published as separate titles in paperback.
