520    "Despite his ability to control the ambient digital cloud,
       a foster teen falls for a clever con man. Luring bullies 
       to a quarry, a boy takes revenge through unnatural powers 
       of suggestion. After an alien invasion, a survivor fears 
       that he brought something infectious back from the 
       Arctic.A rebellious group of queer artists create a new 
       identity that transcends even the anonymity of death. In 
       Shirley Jackson and Nebula Award-winning author Sam J. 
       Miller's devastating debut short fiction collection, queer
       infatuation, inevitable heartbreak, and brutal revenge 
       seemlessly intertwine. Miller shows his savage wit, 
       unrelenting candor, and lush imagery in this essential 
       career retrospective, taking his place alongside 
       luminaries of the short fiction form such as Carmen Maria 
       Machado, Carson McCullers, and Jeff VanderMeer." -- Back
