Contemporary Musings

What happens when you take the fertile imagination of a science fiction and fantasy writer and apply that to modern, contemporary stories? In these pages, Robert J. McCarter does just that, applying the wit, compassion, and character-oriented approach of his sci-fi work to stories a little closer to home with stunning results. From what happens after "happily ever after" reaches its inevitable conclusion, to a tender coming of age story (or two), to a mouse-eyed perspective on human-sized problems.
This collection runs the gamut from mystery to romance, from light to dark, from familiar to unique. Buckle up for an extraordinary journey as McCarter masterfully blends sci-fi sensibilities with contemporary narratives, delivering a mesmerizing collection that defies convention.
