Alt Sagas conjures up places and times almost familiar, unfolding the most profound quandaries of our own lives, and of our futures. Loyalty—and the tragedy of displaced loyalty, social revolution, aging, faith, the perils of revenge magic, physical nonconformity, and more are probed in three novellas and two bonus stories. "Huets is an endlessly inventive writer, grounding speculations about the future in well-researched mythologies of the past as we know it. In these five tour-de-force tales, space crusaders and lonely Calibans sift through the cultural rubble on a hunt for hope and connection. Where personal history is written in tattoos and scars, the transcendent narratives of capital-H History are often literary, and they bring Big Events home to the heart: a Norse saga, a Shakespearean tragedy, a Wild West showdown. Huets' imaginative takes on our cultural touchstones help to explain how we crashed our way into a frightening future; they also promise that we are more than the sum of our technology and our losses." — Susann Cokal, The Kingdom of Little Wounds and Breath and Bones "A fresh, smart and highly entertaining story collection." — Fred Leebron, The News Said It Was
