Twelve short stories of speculative fiction from “an author who genuinely comes close to defying all attempts at description. A true original” (Infinity Plus).
Enter the boundless realms of science fiction, fantasy, horror, the weird, the surreal, and the absurd with a dozen stories from acclaimed author Paul Di Filippo. Watch as a man tries to adapt when his intense connection with instinct and nature vanishes in “Before and After Science,” a long-lost story that appeared in a fanzine decades ago. Enjoy the flash fiction of “Domotica Berserker!” in which massive house printers get hacked and go on a rampage—painting the town pink. Get a glimpse of how LARPing and nowts (aka now-tweakers) don’t mix in “A Faster, Deeper Now.” And delve into the Lovecraftian mythos with “The Horror at Gancio Rosso,” in which retired New York City crimefighter Joseph Petrosino travels to Sicily to investigate new bodies appearing in a catacomb filled with ancient mummies.
This mind-blowing collection is “an example of what makes Di Filippo, Di Filippo. Best part: it throws the taxonomy of genre out the window to be creative in a number of ways” (Speculiction).
Praise for Paul Di Filippo
“Di Filippo is like gourmet potato chips to me. I can never eat just one of his stories.” —Harlan Ellison
“Di Filippo is the spin doctor of SF—and it is a powerful medicine he brews.” —Brian Aldiss, Hugo Award–winning author of Hothouse
“Vibrant, nervy, and full of gloriously wiggy language, Ribofunk is anything but the same old stuff.” —The Philadelphia Inquirer
