A.R. Morlan's work is quirky, often hard to categorize, and non-stop inventive and imaginative. She has gathered a cult following for her science fiction, fantasy, horror, suspense, and erotic fiction of the last four decades. (And sometimes she writes in all those genres at once...) This volume, a "best of" selected from her short fiction by Mary Wickizer Burgess, presents 22 mind-bending tales of the fantastic. Included are:
