Every sale should have a goal. This time, the goal is to free up enough space in the office that I can give that (bigger) bedroom to my two boys, Aidan and Eamonn. So, don't just look at it as simply buying books, you're making two little boys very happy.

Description:

War may be hell, but surviving it can be just as hellish. This is a collection of tales of men and women dealing with one of the ultimate conflicts of the modern age. Nuclear war was triggered and demonstrated more than half a century ago. The threat of its renewal has haunted our dreams ever since.

For the survivors in this new collection, the nightmare never seems to end:

The California power company executive who once dropped a nuclear bomb over Japan, and now, in the present, finds himself most mysteriously haunted. . .

A troubled man trapped in a dead-end job-- managing an exotic photo gallary in a surreal boardwalk, a gallery in which you can get your picture taken as a nuclear holocaust victim. . .

Two young lovers who survived modern war, but may be unable to survive the peace. . .

These tales of the nuclear age have appeared in publications as diverse as Damon Knight's Orbit original anthology series and Penthouse Magazine. As a special bonus, this collection includes for the first time in print, Bryant's unfilmed CBS Twilight Zone script for "The Baku."
