Shifters come in all shapes and sizes. Some can be found in the universes of Odyssey and Miss Delight, or the Pixie Dust setting, and some are found elsewhere. Whether they are laying their lives on the line for their cubs, their mates or their friends, or hunting down some unsuspecting human, they live among the heroes and villains that dwell in our imagination. Within these covers lies a dozen short stories and a swathe of flash fiction and poetry focused on shifters of many forms, from the werewolves of Lunar One to the arach and lizardine, to creatures great and small, land-bound and from the sea.

From flash fiction to novelette-length short stories to verse, the speculation runs from the idea of corporate takeovers of colony worlds, to unusual critter incursions, to the simplicity of plague, and how our future selves might cope when facing the gamut of human emotion on an extra-terrestrial stage.
