Summary
A collection of speculative stories from Elizabeth A. Lynn
Review
Elizabeth Lynn has not published much, but I've read a lot of what there is. And I found on going back to these short stories that I enjoyed them a little more than I did the first time.
There is a certain '70s feel here that's hard to define, but that brings to mind George R. R.
