A collection of five somewhat funny, somewhat dark, occasionally raucous and, I hope, always thought-provoking science fiction stories.
In typical SF style, there's always a "what if" lurking behind the story itself. What if you were marooned in the distant past? What if humans were not the first intelligent beings on this planet to ponder the mysteries of life and death? What if your life was a lie invented by a writer in another universe? What if your entire civilization depended on the horrible death of a teenage girl? What if there was a race of semi-immortal, sexually irresistible men living among us, and living off us?
Warning to the easily offended: The last story in this collection contains some "strong" language and oblique references to various sexual acts.
