"Botch Town" is original to the book: it's a 40,000 word short novel.

It's also nice to see stuff from obscure sources, such as "Giant Land", from <I>The Journal of Pulse Pounding Narratives 2</I>, another fine story, and "The Beautiful Gelreesh", from <I>Album Zutique</I>.

I have almost managed to hold off on reading most of these stories - I only know "Jupiter's Skull" and "The Boatman's Holiday" - so I can have as much fresh Ford goodness as possible.
