What happens on the moon....stays on the moon, even it's from different planets.- ARZONO Publishing "With a voice of clarity and surprise, Robbie Sheerin is well worth the quick and wondrous read each of his stories provides, the insight into our humanity (or inhumanity) they present, and the lasting impression they leave.

In my opinion, all tales about our future should be appropriately apocalyptic.They should shake the foundations of our hopes and dreams .....- Leith MacArthur, author of "The Death of Harry Crow", from The William Snow Series of thrillers.
