Award-nominated author Robert Bagnall’s second anthology of twenty-four stories, variously bleak, funny, bleakly funny or – very occasionally – optimistic.
Meet a man mistaken for a robot, a robot which learns the meaning of irony the hard way, a Frankenstein’s monster with a future in tailoring, a talking cat, a talking car, several time travellers, and a host of other characters.
Online praise for some of the stories in this "Superb" (Audit's Abacus), “Equal parts naughty and thought-provoking - the best kind of thriller” (Driverless), “I’m prepared to swallow aliens, FTL drive, time travel, alternate universes, wizards, and elves, but ethical merchant bankers?!” (The Thirteenth Floor)—and for Robert Bagnall’s first collection, 24 0s & a 2: “Brilliant stories, well written!” (five stars, Amazon).
