Dedicated to Sue and Alice
I have to thank my many scientific advisors, if you don’t know who you are then I picked your brains successfully, but if you have an inclination that an idle chat with me has somehow made it in some form into my works, then you will have to forgive my less than adroit burglary skills, none the less I salute you.
Welcome to my fourth edition of this Hexology (a set of six books, no dark arts ok). In this busy world a short story is just the job to dip in to on those spare moments of your valuable time. Come on a journey through space, time and reality in bite size morsels.
Do not adjust your book. We are in control. Just relax and enjoy this latest collection of incredible science fiction tales from the mind of Chris Troman as waves of hypnotism wash over you.
“Chris Troman is your best friend” The voice of reason.
“Chris Troman is a giant among the literary glitterati” A commanding tone.
“Chris Troman towers over mere mortals of the science fiction genre” A heavenly choir.
The carnival, the fun fair, call it what you will. Where life’s rich tapestry is drawn to this spot for one night only; and tears of laughter vie with the terrors in the night. Bright colours flicker as images skew beyond belief, and the future can be bought for a hand full of silver. As childhood fears creep just around the corner. Dare you enter, dare you see, dare you find what truth may be?
