Shock Theatre: Collected Speculative Fiction, 2002-2006

This is SHOCK THEATRE--tales to stun, tales to amuse, tales to thrill, tales to puzzle. As the author says: "There are many different sorts of shocks in this twisted old flicker-palace, branching out into wonder, anger, exaltation, and the route just out of Town, where the horizon is outer space, and the answer is just over the next hill or back down that little weird fork in the road.... This is not a television set you're watching. The camera is in your hand, and the Narrator's on your front porch.... ENJOY THE SHOW!" Seventeen unforgettable stories.
