Synopses & ReviewsReview:"World Fantasy Award — winner Waldrop (Custer's Last Jump) offers 10 quirky, sometimes outrageous speculative stories in this wise and funny collection, each with a lively and informative afterword. If J.D. Salinger had written SF, Holden Caulfield would have been one of the gang in 'The Other Real World,' a teenage view of the Cuban missile crisis with a more somber outcome than the actual one. 'The Dynasters' imagines an unusual scenario in which the phony Piltdown Man (and Piltdown Woman) are real. A three-headed robot in the offbeat 'Our Mortal Span' runs into trouble in a theme park called Story Book Land when he takes fairy tales too seriously. In the marvelous title story, about playwright Christopher Marlowe, 'Will Shaxper' is only a bit player. 'Us,' a gripping tale of alternative history, explores the possibilities had Charles Lindbergh Jr. lived. Waldrop is a razzle-dazzle hoot."
