From a padded cell to Jacobean England to a distant planet, the fiction of award-winning writer Anna D. Allen is as eclectic as ever in this collection of short stories, Lake People and Other Speculative Tales. Bella would be a master mage... if only she could remember her vocabulary. On the planet Caledonia, little Ellie Fisher-Jones quickly discovers tree-climbing just isn't the same when the trees talk. What's a Horsewoman of the Apocalypse to do when she wearies of bloated babies? Go shopping, of course. In space, there are no rest stops. Sir Henry's collection of Egyptian antiquities is the finest in Europe. Now, if his granddaughter Beatrice would just stop raising the dead.... Alison hears voices.

Ten tales relating snippets of the human experience, each with a speculative twist, from dark fantasy to science fiction-plus a touch of warped humor, along with a dash of creepy
