Publisher's Synopsis

When least expecting it, any of us may find that we have stepped just across an invisible threshold, to just alongside Normal ...

In this collection, the author of the engaging speculative-fantasy novel series The Randolph Family Saga conducts protagonists and readers alike across that threshold, on excursions ranging from tongue-in-cheek to chilling: take a museum tour with a Trickster Deity ... hike with hippies on a mystical mountain near San Francisco ... sail the Pacific with only whales for company ... honeymoon at a romantic old castle near Loch Ness ... spend a monsoon season at a lonely outpost in India ... travel by steam-powered airship from the smoky city of Londinia to the Shire of Eyorke ...

Two novellas a novelette, and nine short stories ask and answer many burning questions of our time, on Paranormal Issues and Mysterious Occurrences ... might there be drawbacks to receiving a mysterious legacy? ... would a girl vampire have boy problems in college? ... which country has the most romantic werewolves? ... what do lab animals talk about? ... who is that beautiful creature on the dance floor? ... are these the worst housemates ever? ... is that a flying saucer? ... just what exactly is a burning question? ...

Patricia A. Leslie invites readers through the door of speculation, to spend some time exploring her Mercurial view of things both seen and unseen ...
