Hadrosaur Tales 8
Hadrosaur Tales 8 is an issue of quests for a key. In some of
these tales, it is the key to a mystery. What really happened to the
lost colony of Roanoake? Do vampires find easy prey among our prisons?
In other tales, it is the key to love; whether it be in the roots of a
tree or in the heart of an engine. Sometimes the key is that of life
itself. Could life continue after death in your own portrait? Could
the galaxy's very existence hang on the word of a dragon? Join the
quest for the hadrosaur's key -- an adventure in science and in fantasy.
John Wiehl reviewed Sharon Black's "Deeply Rooted" and said "[It] is a romantic fable disguised as science fiction. A theme of universal longing for love and affection can only be fulfilled through a morbid transformation in this tale. For Black's idealized characters to find true happiness with each other they must become trees in a fictitious municipal park. The narrator's tone comes through as irritated by the world and unsatisfied that he cannot find love in a place filled with immortal lovers."
Hadrosaur Tales 8 also contains Neal Asher's "Dragon in the Flower" which is a chapter from his novel, Gridlinked..
