From the merely extraordinary to the super-bizarre, the three stories in this original, audio-only compilation demonstrate the remarkable range of critically-acclaimed author Lewis Shiner. In "Lizard Men of Los Angeles," master magician Johnny Cairo stands up against his arch-nemesis Aleister Crowley. In "Prodigal Son," a kidnapping sends a private eye into the seedy worlds of carnivals and Texas politics. And in "Perfidia," the discovery of a lost Glenn Miller recording leads to disturbing revelations about the big-band leader's disappearance in WWII Europe. The Wall Street Journal calls Shiner's writing, "Fast, sharp, vivid, unsentimental..."

This recording features David Birney, star of Bridget Loves Birney, St. Elsewhere, The Testimony of Two Men, and The Adams Chronicles; Texas born Rex Linn of CSI: Miami; and Audi award-winning narrator and Grammy award-winning audio producer Stefan Rudnicki.
