Speaker

by Robert A.V. Jacobs

Overview

The title story is a science fiction short based on the work of two well known authors, but those that precede it, may stretch your imagination by taking you into all that is weird and wonderful.

A ghost in love, a fortune from a Leprechaun, an evil twin, a time traveller, a door to Narnia, the revenge of a witch, and a visit from some aliens are just a few of the things that, hopefully will make you laugh, cry or be terrified.

Our hero moves into a new house, and it’s haunted, His sister is a holy terror on legs and impossible to control. He takes the blame for all her misdeeds. Then he meets the ghost. Both are immediately attracted to each other. But that is the least of their problems.

One twin is an astronaut, one a murderous criminal. The second has always coveted his brother’s success, but his criminal past betrays him. So he schemes in an effort to take his brother’s place.

Just two of the thirty-one stories, set in the past, present and future that are waiting inside.
