Mouse wouldn't be your first choice to stop the apocalypse. He wouldn't even be his own. "Primarily non-verbal," his file says, "anxiety and communication difficulty, nevertheless considerably bright." The world's too loud for Mouse, all his dials are set to eleven, and just talking-let alone making friends- presents a very real challenge. But for reasons he can't imagine, a purple-haired punk named Bliss has Decided They're Friends, and things-for once-are looking up. Then, he meets a ghost and learns some magic, while an ancient cabal of alchemists and sorcerers alternately try to kidnap and enlist him- Because, you see, he's their last hope for saving the world, and the proverbial clock is ticking. Mouse wouldn't be your first choice to stop the apocalypse. But then, sometimes life makes these choices for you.
Autorenporträt
Richard is a writer and academic editor who's living proof that abstract concepts like 'impostor syndrome' can be physically animated-not unlike an alchemist's homunculus-and given jobs like 'writer' and 'editor.' He lives in New Hampshire with his wife and cat in a house built in the year the first science fiction film, 'A Trip to the Moon,' was released. Displacement is his second novel.
