Bears Discover Fire and Other Stories
by Terry BissonAmazon Reviewer, Jon G. "This [book] is a collection of short (often very) stories. Many, like the title story are based on a single conceit--everything else is the same, except, well, bears discover fire. And instead of hibernating, they're camping out in the medians of interstates. Or in 'England Underway,' England starts moving around Ireland, swings past Bermuda and comes to rest off the East Coast of the U.S.... 'Press Ann' can't really be described here, but is now one of my all-time favorites. Bisson admits he sometimes writes 'odd mainstream works' that get passed of as fantasy and SF. While only a handful of his works 'count' as true fantasy or SF, they are no less enjoyable."
