There's a difference between "feeling" safe and "being" safe. The first is based on perception. The second is based in reality. This third collection of 36 short stories has a sub-genre tale for anyone who likes sci-fi. From time travel to modern-day mysticism, each tale is about something or someone in need of protecting. For example: A gorgon has to protect his race - and himself - from a ruthless serial killer. A feudal samurai must defend a godmaking jewel from any would-be thieves. The figment of an architect's imagination looks after his creator's interests by killing anyone who causes him distress. As you can imagine, these stories are not . . . nice. Funny, devious and creative, yes. But not nice. So please read on and enjoy the hidden side of the protective arts.
