It was the highest honour to defend the Empire against the dreaded Chingers, an enemy race of seven-foot-tall lizards. But Bill, a Technical Fertilizer Operator from a planet of farmers, wasn't interested in honour - he was only interested in two things: his chosen career, and the shapely curves of Inga-Maria Calyphigia. Then a recruiting robot shanghaied him with knockout drops, and he came to in deep space, aboard the Empire warship Christine Keeler. And from there, things got even worse...
The Variable Man: Philip K Dick He fixed things-clocks, refrigerators, vidsenders and destinies. But he had no business in the future, where the calculators could not handle him. He was Earth's only hope-and its sure failure The Misplaced Spaceship: Harry Harrison It might seem careless to lose track of something like a battleship but interstellar space is on a different scale of magnitude. A misplaced battleship in the wrong hands can be most dangerous. Youth: Isaac Asimov They found the two strange animals the morning after they heard the thunder sounds. They knew that they could never show their new pets to their parents. Bread Overhead: Fritz Leiber The Staff of Life suddenly and disconcertingly sprouted wings -and mankind had to eat crow Rainworm: Jakob Chapman The bond was only marred in one way. I relived her strongest memories and emotions: the explosion of Candeo-being flung from the inferno while the rest of her race sizzled in silence-the planet below a glowing brand.
In x, Dan Chelotti conjures voices that wander, pause, analyze, articulate, attempt to enlighten, fail to enlighten, and then answer that failure with laughter. The wildly inventive imagery in these cinematic pieces lodges them somewhere between the surreal and the pure symbol, colorful and smooth like the lyrics of John Ashbery or Linda Pastan. In Chelotti's poems, diamonds talk and sheriffs balance frogs on the tips of pens. The rain says, Listen to Debussy, go ahead, Debussy will fix you. --From "Migraine Cure" The secret to including everything is to intricately divide your mind and then, all of a sudden, undivide it. --From "Still Life on a Scrolling Background"
James Bolivar 'Slippery Jim' diGriz, Special Corps agent, master conman and interstellar criminal (retired), is living high on the hog with his lovely, vivacious wife Angelina on the luxury planet Moolaplenty when long-lost Cousin Elmo arrives. And Cousin Elmo's not alone: he's got a ship full of porcuswine and their keepers, and they're all looking for a new home. And before he's even finished his first cocktail, his bank account's been drained and he and Angelina are off wandering the stars on a sabotaged ship. In this darkly satiric work Harry Harrison brings his most famous character out of retirement for a grand tour of the galaxy, cocktail in hand, his luscious wife by his side, a smile on his lips and larceny in his heart. He's in search of adventure, gravitons, and a way to get the porcuswine out of his life ... for ever!
