Last Plane to Heaven

By Jay Lake & Gene Wolfe
Last Plane to Heaven by Jay Lake & Gene Wolfe digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

Last Plane to Heaven is the final and definitive short story collection of award-winning SF author Jay Lake, author of Green, Endurance, and Kalimpura.

Long before he was a novelist, SF writer Jay Lake, was an acclaimed writer of short stories. In Last Plane to Heaven, Lake has assembled thirty-two of the best of them. Aliens and angels fill these pages, from the title story, a hard-edged and breathtaking look at how a real alien visitor might be received, to the savage truth of "The Cancer Catechisms." Here are more than thirty short stories written by a master of the form, science fiction and fantasy both.

This collection features an original introduction by Gene Wolfe.


At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
