Dreams Times Ten

From the mind of Colleen Drippe, author of the Lost Rythar series, comes Dreams Times Ten, a collection of short science fiction stories that explore that explore what we are and the realms of wonder within us:

• The Warrens: The finest artist in Stodd turns out to be an alien from some strange planet where they have crocodiles and elk and the people look like -- well, like us.
• Walking the Longlight: Doctor Jonsson is searching beneath earth's melting glaciers to find evidence of ancient cities built by visitors from other worlds. No luck until one day on Ellsmere Island things do not go at all the way he expects.
• Immortal Travis: In the evening of the earth, Prince Travis learns that the science of the ancients which has kept him alive over the centuries is not doing exactly what he thought it was doing.
• Decoy: A fun story about the misadventures of STEFA (Save The Earth From Aliens) and its very earnest adherents.
• Packmates: A drug-crazed assassin emerges from the twilight into full humanity when he discovers the work of El Greco, master painter of Old Earth.
• From the Freezer: In the enlightened world of the future, the cryo-freezers gape for the social misfits, unwanted children, revolutionaries -- you get the picture. No more capital punishment, just endless sleep.
• The Moment: what is time? In a futuristic and ruined world, the Inspector of Research is obliged to witness a few experiments along those lines and, for some reason, he is never the same afterwords.
• The Wolves Waiting: Comnorix has been recruited to help gather specimens for the latter part of the three billion year Museum of Natural History. He and his fellow workers live far beyond their own times, losing themselves in an unfamiliar future that threatens their sanity.
• Far Traveller: In the secretest of secret bases, a new technology is sending people for short jaunts back in time (sort of) to spy on our country's enemies. So far so good, until someone decides as a joke to send an operative back to spy on Jesus.
• The Town at the End: The world is disappearing, bit by bit, and someone has to plug up the hole in reality. Not an easy job.
