Beschreibung

It was a pleasant little town in the Northeast. It had never been hurricane country. When they heard that Diane was coming, they couldn’t really believe it would harm them. And the hurricane itself didn’t touch them.
 
But the rains caused by the hurricane ravaged their little town as viciously as the worst artillery attack could have done.
 
This is a powerful and tremendously graphic novel of people trapped in that town: and how they learned what a flood really means.
 
And how they found out what they themselves were like.

    “SF writing of a rare quality” lifts this collection of stories from the renowned author of The Hustler and The Man Who Fell to Earth (Time Out).   The author of the competitive pool thriller The Hustler and the groundbreaking sci-fi novel The Man Who Fell to Earth, Walter Tevis was also a master of the short story. His work was published in Playboy, Redbook, Cosmopolitan, and many other magazines. This anthology collects some of his best short work. Full of wit, surprise, dark humor, and deep emotion, these stories pack a punch—and are ideal for fans of his longer work or those looking for an introduction to one of America’s most iconic sci-fi writers.   “The poetic imprints of a fine writer’s trail.” —The Times (London)

    Welcome to a world of fantasy, fairy tales, and murder most foul . . .  
    Never should have been the end of my problems. I should be back on Grimm. With Hook. Hating Crowley. And working alongside my partner, the Hatter. But life rarely turns out how I expect. The Sea Witch, and oh, incidentally my mother, has told me I'm a witch. Not just any witch either, but one of the biggest bad. I wouldn't believe her, except I can do magick now. 
    Unfortunately I can't do enough to escape the predicament I'm in. Hook's dead. Crowley's dead. And I'm alone in a realm that hates my guts. And there has been a murder. My sister's, Aquata's. The realm blames me. I didn't do it, but I have no allies who'll believe me. Worse yet, my father—their King—was injured in the attack and he's now in a coma. I have days to prove my innocence before they toss me into the eternal pit of torment. Thankfully, I'll discover that I'm not as alone as I once feared. But trusting this person might very well spell the death of me . . .
