eBook

Featuring man's staggering journey to the stars...

In a Tenn's-eye view of the world, "staggering" can be interpreted in more ways than one, of course.

Notably -
The warm, human interpretation
The feminist interpretation
The green-transparent-bubble interpretation
The man-in-the-street interpretation

Mr. Tenn has included a charming witch tale, a really delicious vampire item, and a superior machine (intergalactic hit) story. These have nothing to do with man's staggering journey to the stars. They are simply here to add to the confusion.

Then again, why couldn't they have something to do with the square root of man?

Stories like 'Down Among the Dead Men', 'The Liberation of Earth' and 'The Custodian' quickly established him as a fine, funny and thoughtful satirist.
