Description
These stories describe interactions between ordinary humans and the divine, the satanic and various scientific possibilities - or simply the imagination. In THE CHASTENER OF SOULS, a peaceful morning feeding pigeons in the park is interrupted by a heavenly busybody. In TRADE SECRETS, alien visitors offer the human race a deal that sounds too good to be true. In NICE WORK IF YOU CAN GET IT, a trio of friends in ancient Judea find a profitable sideline writing stories. In GOD IS A REPUBLICAN, a couple of members of the Grand Old Party receive support from an unexpected quarter. In THE DEVIL MADE HIM DO IT, we eavesdrop on the trial of Abraham for the attempted murder of Isaac. In EUREKA, a scientist finds willing buyers for a serum that converts those who drink it. In THE DEVIL MADE ME DO IT, a young man arrested for indecent exposure tries to explain dark matter to a couple of cops. In BACK TO THE FUTURE, a pair of scientists discover more than they wanted to know about the near future. In JUST MESSING WITH YOU SINNER, an office worker has a disturbing encounter with a panhandler. In SINNERS AND SAINTS, we see that baseball is more than just our national pastime. And in TOBERMORY, we get the cat's point of view.
