The future isn't all it's cracked up to be. In this eclectic short story anthology, every wonder comes with a price. A grizzled detective struggles to uncover an ancient society that fights in the shadows. A seasoned diplomat embarks on a desperate, physics-defying mission to stop a war with a lost world. An ordinary woman discovers that the best superpower might be having none at all. And in the novella "Modern Philosophy" a curmudgeonly philosopher stumbles into an adventure that stretches from the dark corners of his subconscious to dimensions beyond imagination. The Wandering World collects ten stories rife with intrigue, humour, and insight.
