Customer Reviews

An Interesting Collection!

Very interesting suite of seventeen stories with differing takes on how America's future might unfold. There are some very good stories here (I am particularly fond of "A Souvenir to Remember" and "Better Guns") and others not so much ("Jesus Runs"). Recommended both for the subject matter and the interesting extrapolations....a fine read!
