  Beneath the starlit canopy of Verdantia, where vine lords tangle embraces in nocturnal twine and free-spirited dryads sway with leafy liberty, lord Vesper ensnares dryad Sylva in a tangled love that defies her wandering roots. Their embrace, twisted in vine vows, grows the canopy—or chokes it with possessive thorns. As they climb star-veiled arbors and root-laced grottos, entangled by thorn barons and spirit wanderers, Vesper's lordly tendrils merge with Sylva's free sway, revealing a vine legend of liberated growth. When a severed vine summons blight creepers, they must untangle the embrace to nurture the stars. In the twist of starlit tangles, where every twine binds with passion and every leaf flutters with freedom, their love becomes the vine that reaches for the heavens.

  The Perfect Woman by Robert Sheckley - Somebody once came up with a song title we have never forgotten: "For every man there is a woman, so why did I gel stuck with you?” Not that Mr. Morcheck felt that way about Myra. He not only believed she was absolutely perfect; you could get a punch in the nose for doubting it! And he was so right —for a while! 
  Mr. Morcheck awoke with a sour taste in his mouth and a laugh ringing in his ears. It was George Owen-Clark’s laugh, the last thing he remembered from the Triad-Morgan party. And what a party it had been! All Earth had been celebrating the turn of the century. The year Three Thousand! Peace and prosperity to all, and happy life... 
  “How happy is your life?” Owen-Clark had asked, grinning slyly, more than a little drunk. “I mean, how is life with your sweet wife?” That had been unpleasant. Everyone knew that Owen-Clark was a Primitivist, but what right had he to rub people’s noses in it? Just because he had married a Primitive Woman. . . . 
  “I love my wife,” Morcheck had said stoutly. “And she’s a hell of a lot nicer and more responsive than that bundle of neuroses you call your wife.” But of course, you can’t get under the thick hide of a Primitivist. Primitivists love the faults in their women as much as their virtues — more, perhaps.
