Enjoy the voyages, and watch out for false Buddhas on the road! "Don't be looking for bold starship captains or warrior maidens wielding magic swords in Gunning for the Buddha. Michael Jasper serves up something refreshingly different: a heady brew of ordinary folks making tough decisions at the far edges of reality. Spend some time with these stories and you're bound to bump into people you know who find themselves in places you've only dreamed about." - Hugo-winning author James Patrick Kelly "Mike Jasper brings the common touch to the most uncommon situations. Welcome to his world." - Nebula-winning author John Kessel
