Transcendent Boston
(2022)(A book in the And other stories series)
A collection of stories by Lawrence M Schoen
Is purgatory just an endless cycle of living and dying inside a taxidermied dog?
What do you do when you're a retired professor of indigenous languages and an ancient mayan trickster god decides he wants your help?
Where does a professional gambler go to "recharge" luck?
18 stories by award-winning author Lawrence M. Schoen, including several previously published in out of print, anthologies and excerpts from larger works that ended up on the cutting room floor are preserved here, ensuring they don't simply vanish for all time. Characters that have continued across stories and books, early tales that tinker with expectations and societal perspectives, or blur our understanding of ordinary things from intro psych classes to the neighborhood pharmacy.
In this latest collection, Schoen reminds us that his talent for creativity and diversity, compelling characters and entertaining dialogue, is still going strong.
Genre: Science Fiction
