Editorial Reviews

Review

"...an attractively printed and packaged poem by one of our finest speculative poets....The pacing and cadence of the poem are conversational, almost blank verse. The reader seems to be listening to a monologue by the body thief, and as such it reminds me of some of Robert Browning's monologous poems. And it lives up to the comparison....highly recommended." -- --Star*Line

...burns with strong ideas and important themes...the heart of speculation and its serious commentary both reside here... -- -Trent Walters, SF SITE, May 2001

...cleverly designed broadsheet...a poem whose wry musings compress a novel into a dozen stanzas. -- -Paul Di Filippo, ASIMOV'S SCIENCE FICTION, August 1999
