{"product_id":"2940149440481","title":"Bliffel and the Amorpho Beam","description":"Bliffel, a simple man becomes simpler when he purposely steps in front of the Amorpho Beam and obviously becomes amorphous, which would distress a more complex person.  He makes the best of it, along with those around him, and everyone adapts.  When Bliffel falls in love, and Mary does too, the result is a very interesting combination of characteristics.  This is actually a charming story of romance in a different style in a very high-tech environment and like any good love story, it works out well.  Aren't happy endings wonderful?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEnjoy this short story that is also a part of Greg's Frequent Flyer Science Fiction Volume 4, along with 3 other short stories.
