Slightly Mad Scientists: A Book of Short StoriesA whimsical collection of popular science fiction subjects done with a few new twists. In Bad Behavior a citizen of a very strict society gets three years at a prison colony for a bad haircut. In Outlaw in Time a fast gun from the future goes back in time to see how he measures up against the real gunfighters of the Old West. In Colony Ship the fate of Earths last remaining survivors falls into the hands of a group of hippie scientists from the past. Other stories are driven by time traveling con artists, portals into alternate dimensions and some good old fashioned space opera. The stories are short, to the point and fun to read. Fifty zonets for your approval. |
