Of this collection of speculative fiction, Alfar?s first, fictionist Christopher Barzak (Crawford Award winner and Nebula Award nominee) has written: ?[these] stories range from the contemporary modern world into the past, and far into the future. The writing is strong, and the voices included within these pages are absolutely stunning.?

Publisher: "Nikki Alfar is a wife, mother, fictionist, dancer, martial arts student, knitter, and origami folder. While she has yet to receive acclaim for folding, knitting, fighting, dancing, mothering, or wifing?go figure?she has managed to cadge repeated recognition out of the Palanca, Nick Joaquin, and global Mariner literary authorities, along with back-to-back National Book Awards for her story collections WonderLust and Now, Then, and Elsewhen. She?s edited more speculative fiction anthologies than she can count?there?ve been many, and her math is egregious?including the acclaimed, annual Philippine Speculative Fiction. By trade, she?s a marketing and corporate copywriter, so she writes fiction all the time. Nikki smokes like a chimney, and has one grandbunny and two children with writer Dean Francis Alfar?Ryo, 19, is also a published writer, and Rowan, 12, is a calligrapher."
