Urban Fantasy Comedy

Damico is trapped in a fantasy role-playing game. Not "trapped at the table" like Thanksgiving dinner after a particularly unpleasant election. Trapped inside. Back in the real world, he's probably bleeding to death in the trunk of the game master's car. On a happier note, he currently rules this improbably constructed world from the very plush Comfy Chair, which he ordered built to replace the previous overlord's throne. It's amazing what a true artist can do with hard wood, soft animals, and relaxation magic.

My mother-in-law, Diane Newby, zombified by accident. She still volunteers at her church bake sales and cooks pot roast for her daughter and son-in-law, Ron Yardley. What ticks her off is when people don't treat her like a normal human being - with glowing red eyes and super strength and speed. And if she doesn't get her own way, look out. She explodes and leaves broken plaster and body parts in her wake. Nothing stops her: not brick walls, the federal government, or middle-aged spread.

Rooting about in the loft of a house that you have lived in for ages can be a dangerous activity. Especially if there are no loft boards! In it, I discovered what I believe to be the only surviving printed copy of Clerb, a short book I wrote some 27 years ago now. Influenced by two huge gods of "funtastical" literature - Douglas Adams and Terry Pratchett - Clerb is a humorous alien time travel adventure story... involving yoghurt!

"The wonderful visit" fu una delle prime tre opere di Wells, pubblicata nel 1895, anno in cui pubblicò anche "La macchina del tempo". Nel racconto lungo si parla di un angelo, atterrato su questo mondo, e non riconosciuto nella sua qualità di visitatore angelico. Il rapporto fra i mondi, situazioni spazio temporali diverse, l'esistenza di una vita oltre la vita, costituiscono il substrato del racconto, oltre che essere un tema dominante nella scrittura di Wells; e non è un caso che il racconto venne dedicato al suo acaro amico, morto di polmonite quello stesso anno.
