A Robot, A Ghost and An Alien Walk Into A Bar

Mark Thomas

Alternate Short Story Collection


In this collection, robots are art collectors, blues musicians and philosophical cats. Aliens are bumbling interlopers who get eviscerated by urban coyotes, or bogged down in human administrivia. The Ghost-characters should be powerful but they are pathologically self-conscious, and constrained in their movements by fifth-century Pelagianism. In each story, a robot, ghost, alien (or a human who might as well be a robot, ghost or alien) struggle to find happiness with only modest success.



A Robot, A Ghost and An Alien Walk Into A Bar will be available to buy in paperback, epub, and Kindle
