Distant Realms collects 13 works of speculative fiction by Chris Lester, creator of the award-winning Metamor City story universe.

Contained in this deceptively short volume are many, many little stories, largely in assorted scifi/fantasy/speculative fiction settings (and don't get us started on the Fairy Tales).

This is clearly Very Bad, and you should stay far away from this book.
