The Oracle at the Adelphi is a story with a surprise ending, based on incidents from my childhood in Ireland. Bottom Feeders is a reworking of something I wrote a long time ago, when I was interested almost exclusively in science fiction. It's really two parallel stories, as readers will discover. The Battlefield Philosopher is perhaps the darkest tale I have written so far, the result of a mild depression that I was going through at the time. One kind person has pointed out to me that it nevertheless has a small positive aspect.
Collateral Damage concerns the way that a war can reach across half a century to blight the present.
Mitzi is a short film script, a surreal tale concerning a young girl with a mental handicap. If you like any of the stories, or even if you don't, please e-mail me or sign the guest book and let me know. In response to a deluge of requests from a reader I have produced a full-text version of Multiverse on a standard IBM compatible floppy disk. All hyper-links work normally. Allows you to visit Multiverse off-line.
