Fantasy Crow: A Collection of Curious Flights

Fantasy Crow begins a trilogy of short-story collections by Keith Croes, whose mission seems to be to follow his imagination into whatever landscape attracts it. The author scatters shiny objects that draw us high or low through migratory routes dark or light, familiar or strange, comfortable or excruciating. There are echoes of masters here: Asimov, Heinlein, Bradbury, and others. But the stories not only stand on their own, but add a little something something. * A new ice age locks citizens into their anthill cities, but the season looks promising for the Philadelphia Eagles. * An orthopedic surgeon on a humanitarian mission to a war-torn African nation discovers that he's manufacturing a bionic army. * The U.S. space program, and the life of a would-be astronaut, hinges on the power of love. * An interstellar big-game hunter finds the ultimate predator at the the edge of the known universe. * If your neighborhood gnome is ticked off by urban pollution, consider a trip to the country. * Most murderers can be rehabilitated by a professionally guided introduction to the Akashic record. Most. There are many more, with some new twists in old-school sci-fi/fantasy. Get ready to fly.
