Zinggong (Science Fiction & Fantasy)
description: It's the story of a future where the Pan-Asian rulers vacation in the Wild West of the United States, and their entertainers consist of genetically engineered "cowboys and outlaws" and slave labor American humans who cater to the tourist droves from Asia. In other words, Pan-Asia now owns our country, and "Zinggong" (means "palace on tour" in Chinese) is the place where Asians can now rest and relax from all their wars and other work. San Diego Detective, Julien Gaston, belongs to a group of freaks who can remember things, and he sets out to mount a rebellion against the Pan-Asian rulers. How does he accomplish it? He enlists the aide of some rather attractive and dynamically war-like "duplicant" women, who can do things he only dreams about.

The President's Parasite and Other Stories (Literature & Fiction)
description: In The President's Parasite, Jim Musgrave resurrects all that has gone missing in today's literature: originality. The title story is a Kafkaesque piece from the point-of-view of an intellectual tapeworm trapped inside a moronic president, and the satirical impact is worthy of Swift. The other stories range from a widower trapped inside the Clock Tower in Baghdad that he constructed, to a baseball pitcher who becomes a living vegetable after a batted ball strikes his head. All in all, there is something for everyone in this collection of 30 eye-popping stories from a truly gifted author.
