Claws and Starships - E-book - ePub

When the results of Earth's genetic experiments fled for their makers, they took their own name as they left humanity behind; centuries later, the Pelted have spread into a multi-world alliance of cultures and languages, cribbed from Terra or created whole-cloth. Claws and Starships collects six stories of the Pelted, ranging from the humor of a xenoanthropologist on the wrong side of mythology to more serious works considering the implications of genetic engineering in a far-future classroom seeded with the children of those laboratories.
Come stamp your passport and visit the worlds of the Pelted Alliance in all their variety!Includes the novella "A Distant Sun, " and the short stories "Rosettes and Ribbons" (Best in Show anthology), "The Elements of Freedom, " "Tears" (Pawprints), "Pantheon, " and "Butterfly" (Anthrolations magazine).
