“We all have our memories; the guitar still sang...”
This collection of twenty-nine science fiction vignettes are at turns touching, humorous, and thought-provoking. Each begin cradled in the comfort of the familiar, but take readers along a winding path to the unexpected.
Serving as poignant reminders of the ephemeral nature of life and death, these stories encapsulate what it means to be human; to be captivated by music, love, and life itself.
Written as a loving tribute to her son, Kenna McKinnon’s Short Circuit: And Other Geek Stories is a reminder of the legacy left by a remarkable man.
