Opis

Another collection of six short speculative fictions by William Mangieri, in which we learn some life lessons: - People you let in your mind can rub off on you. - What to do once they're in there. - Your parents can embarrass you, too. - You can't escape your past, - Or your parents. - Go where the jobs are. Includes the short stories: In Robert's Memory It happens to us all - one day we discover we're not as perfect as we thought we were, and we have to learn to function with that fact. An interplanetary tourist ship runs into it's own version of an iceberg; it's up to R0B3rt to ensure its passengers' survival. Careful - you spend enough time around people and they're bound to rub off on you. My Reality Show The voices may be in your head, but that doesn't mean they're not real... Convinced that there's something else going on in there, a man decides to lay down the rules of engagement for his own First Contact. The Body A long-suffering, social-climbing son deals with more than the usual embarrassment of misbehaving parents, hoping to find acceptability in the certainty of their demise. If some things would just stay buried... Choosing the Right Time Who hasn't thought about how different their life would be, if only they had made this choice instead of that one? If there was a way to start over - if this one thing over here hadn't happened? If only...? A young man finds out that no matter how amazing a technology can be, there are no simple fixes. The Sheila Wulf Chitinoid Sessions Fresh from the University, Sheila Wulf thinks she's made her mark when she discovers an alien species, but her fifteen minutes of xenopological fame seems to be wasted on a tribe of uncooperative crabs. Could anything be worse? Try working for her. Thank You for Your Interest in XenCorp In this perpetual economic down-turn, who in their right mind would restrict their job search pool to local employers only? Broaden your possibilities. Some companies only off-shore - consider off-worlding
