The debut collection by multi-award-winning writer Cat Sparks. Inside are 13 stories, including the Ditmar-winning A Lady of Adestan, Seventeen and All the Love in the World and the Aurealis Award-winning Hollywood Roadkill and Sammarynda Deep. "A vigorous and versatile writer with a keen eye and a wide and varied palette" Gardner Dozois "These stories will hook you with one weird world after another, and propel you to the end with typical Sparks-y energy." Margo Lanagan "Cat Sparks is a talented writer with an artist's sensibility. From fantasy lands of her own creation to far out in worlds in space and all places in between, there is never a dull moment in her stories." Ann Vandermeer "Read this book because you have surprises and treats and satisfaction in store if you do. Then recommend it to your friends." David G. Hartwell
