Ebook short description

If you suddenly feel an enormous weight pressing down on you, it’s probably too late. Your Umph is already inside an alien’s body. This should not scare you… “Absolutely brilliant! …a real classic, which leaves the reader wondering if we do really live on Planet Earth!” Louisa Middleton-Blake, author, Wales, UK. The other stories are about the love of life and the planet Earth.

Extended description

To further enhance the popularity of this Series, the author decided to add one more story, the Black Hole, which later became the prologue for his story the Gift of Gamman (a sci-fi fantasy full-length novel soon to appear on Smashwords).

Review by: Patrick Johnson on Sep. 24, 2011 :
I read the four stories at a single sitting, and I hungered for more. This seems true of whatever Law writes. He seems to exhibit an extraordinary combination of humor, imagination, depth of philosophy, humanity and literary skills. A Writer not to be missed. Yes, the capital W is there on purpose!

If you like science fiction, you’ll love these stories. And if you don’t (yet), you will love science fiction after these stories. You can’t lose!

Great stuff! One can but wonder what reality Stan Law lives in, but whichever he visits we benefit. The stories cover humor, hope, daring, and courage. An beautiful collection.

Review by: Adam Kerry on Sep. 19, 2010 :
It seems that Stan Law puts as much Sci-Fi into Cats & Dogs, as Cats, Dogs and other creatures, into Sci-Fi. Or perhaps he writes what can be termed Visionary Fiction, which stretches our view of the world beyond our everyday reality. Whichever is true, I love his work.

Review by: Hanna K. Loda on Sep. 19, 2010 :
To use the words of one of your reviewers: "Absolutely brilliant!" I laughed, not quite sure why I was laughing. It seems that the aliens have a slighty warped opinion of us, human. Or... have they? Actualy, by the time I read "Dare", I knew they were right.

Review by: Bohdan Czytelnik on Sep. 02, 2010 :
Thirsty work is as light, as Dare is dark. The Acorn seems to lie in between, showing the dangers inherent in our ways, yet offering a surprising future. Whatever your taste in Sci-Fi, this trio will titillate your gullet with diversity. Ah, and don't forget humor! I'm looking forward to more in this Series.
