Publisher's summary

The woman who can see all possible futures is dating the man who can see the only foreordained future. A wildly popular slapstick filmmaker is drawn, against his better judgment, into working with a fascist militia against a background of social collapse. Two friends must embark on an Epic Quest to Capture the Weapon That Threatens the Galaxy, or else they’ll never achieve their dream of opening a restaurant. A trans woman is captured by an agency that brutally forces detransition by means of brain transplants - only to discover that the person overseeing her case is her childhood friend. And in the liminal space between the warring fragments of what was once the United States, a mysterious bookstore is the place where all the incompatible realities can touch.

Here are delightful upendings of genre clichés and heartfelt revitalizations of classic tropes. Here is social commentary with teeth, and here are scenes of pants-wettingly funny comedy. Here are characters and situations that by their very outrageousness achieve a heightened realism unlike any other. And here is one of the strongest voices in modern science fiction, the writer called by Andrew Sean Greer “this generation’s Le Guin”.

A delightful collection!

Each of these stories was a treat. Sometimes funny, sometimes sad, sometimes scary and all fully alive and carefully detailed. The range of the author is impressive and I will be looking for more titles by Charlie Jane Anders!

A wonderful anthology

Every person you meet is so such and real. They’re deeply flawed and deeply lovable all at the same time.

Smart and well-crafted

These thought-provoking stories are sometimes joyful, sometimes harrowing, always intricately well-constructed! And they come together as a whole into something even more wonderful.

Mindless prattling

Hey. Why not put random words together without any rational or reason. Yup! That’s the ticket
