The Dreaming Kind: Short Stories and Fantasies - Paperback

Acclaimed Science Fiction and Fantasy author C. S. Friedman invites you to journey into the deliciously disturbing worlds of her imagination.

A bank clerk struggles to deal with malware inside his head...
A woman is required by law to let her dying mother take over her body...
A writer meets the man of her dreams (or perhaps her nightmares)...
A time traveler seeks scalped tickets to the Sermon on the Mount...
A telepath must abandon her humanity to negotiate with alien predators...
A visiting extraterrestrial chooses a down-and-out junkie for its first human contact...
