Publisher's Synopsis
This anthology comprises two collections of short stories, "Extraordinaries and Eschatologies" and "Why God Made the World." These thirty-eight stories have never been published before as collections, although many of them have been published individually. In discussing "Extraordinaries and Eschatologies," Dr. Nathan stated that he hoped this collection would have special appeal to readers of short fiction because the stories are unconventional and varied. Many of the stories use satire to advance their themes. The style of writing communicates quickly, avoiding long descriptions that barely advance the story line.
