At 80, Cassie just wants a job. The guy giving the interview is out of this world. Oh, but he's offering fantastic Heath Benefits, as in the Fountain of Youth, but still, the cost may be too high.
The fate of nations may hang on a sharp edger of a knife forged long ago for an assassin. Or maybe not.
If you had it to do over again, would you swallow your pride and ask for help. Or would the cost be too high.
Why make war? We can do it all with computers. But then again, what will the computers want for the dirty deeds.
Four old vets and a kid, hanging around the bar's TV, watching the Berlin wall come down. Is it the end of nightmares, or the beginning?
This short story collection shares what it's like to break in as a writer and how the stories came to be full of strange or different, mundane or out of this world.
