"A wide-ranging and often hard-hitting collection, these ten tales stimulate response, contemplation and reaction. Larger-than-life characters, setting and scenarios combined with hihg-impact immediacy of effect and an ability to linger long in mind and imagination make these sure-fire and engaging winners weith even the most sceptical reader" -- Jake Hope The Bookseller "Margo Lanagan's short stories take place in worlds not quite our own, and yet each one illuminates what it is to be human ... Within fairly safe confines they do indeed surprise, they certainly intrigue and best of all, they show just exactly what can be done in the short story format" -- Phil Hewitt "Hold on tightly and prepare to be amazed at what a brilliant writer can do in just a few short pages" Young Post "These works demonstrate a powerful sense of the marvellous" Publishers Weekly
