Yet another wonderful work by gifted author Rhys Hughes, this time a dual-threaded story of space… sort of. To explain much more than that would spoil the thing.

It's not as silly as others in his output, and occasionally gets bogged down a bit with explanations of philosophy or science which are only occasionally important to the plot per se, but the story is filled with the usual entertaining facets of both events and characters.

One last thing: read Michael Bishop's introduction only after reading the novella, wherein you'll learn the story is an homage to Ian Watson and his stories. It will also make more sense after having read the story it introduces. ( )
