I was reading
Misquoting Jesus: The Story Behind Who Changed the Bible and Why by Bart D. Ehrman when
Going Alien, a collection of sci-fi short-stories by MobileRead author Jeffrey A. Carver ("
starrigger"), came to my attention. After reading the sample—an engaging story entitled "Shapeshifter Finals" about an inter-planetary wrestling match between a shapeshifter and a human—I just had to buy the book and finish the story. Now I'm back to reading
Misquoting Jesus, after which I'll read the remaining stories in
Going Alien.
Interestingly, I meant to download a sample of another of Carver's sci-fi short story collections,
Reality and Other Fictions, because the title intrigued me, but I must have accidentally sent the sample to one of my other Kindles. I've since downloaded a sample to my PaperWhite, and will no doubt read that one, also.
