Readers know Hugo-award winner Kristine Kathryn Rusch for her serious, deeply thought-out science fiction. But the former editor of The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction also has a silly side, one in evidence in the five stories in this collection. Only one story, Paparazzi of Dreams, is at all serious, although it has a very skewed perspective of the world. Going Native, pretends to seriousness, like so many news stories do. In Advisors at Naptime, a child saves the world only because she wants a nap. In The One That Got Away, poker players thwart an alien invasion, and in Rusch's popular What Fluffy Knew, a cat does. Rusch takes her chosen genre seriously most of the time. But fortunately for readers, she doesn't take it seriously all of the time.
