    About this ebook

    A provocative and entertaining collection of short stories from a time and place only you can decide. Two brothers fight it out with un-natural intelligent hordes. Three aliens try for first contact. A signal from space leaves us curious. A ho-hum invention unwittingly crosses the line, and an air traveler tastes death. Can you imagine being eaten by an alien.

    I hope that these short stories will cause you to reassess our place in space and time.
