Noctambulists and Other Fictions
reviewed on + 9 more book reviews


(c)2001. "Noctambulists and Other Fictions" is a bad title. No one sleepwalks. This author has such a sense of something unique. It is sort of a collection of short stories relating to the effects of varieties of disasters semi-related together. The falling apart of society. Global cooling instead of global warming causing a variety of affects unique to this author including an advancing glacier. Zero-Negative population growth. A broken nuclear reactor causing an extended power outage. A breakdown in social services and the closing down of all nursing homes.
