Synopsis

Ian Randal Strock's short fiction travels from the deep past to the far future, from the horrifying to the fascinating, and from just next door to the farthest reaches of the imagination. These stories represent the first three decades of his writing career, and according to 35-time Hugo nominee Stanley Schmidt, "display a delightful diversity of thought-provoking ideas and engaging storytelling."

Analog Editor Trevor Quachri says "This is the kind of classic, clever idea-oriented SF you'd find in the Golden Age, but built for today. Recommended for your witty friends, history buffs, time-travel fans...."

Whether it's stories about inventing time travel in order to avoid being late for work, dying young to achieve immortality, colonizing the stars via conspiracy theory, or the big one: learning how to recognize your time-traveling self, Hugo Winner Robert J. Sawyer says "Strock's intellect shines through on every page of this fabulous collection."
