Description

Aurora Award Finalist story from a multi-award winning author.

"Doug Smith is, quite simply, the finest short-story writer Canada has ever produced in the science fiction and fantasy genres, and he's also the most prolific. His stories are a treasure trove of riches that will touch your heart while making you think."
-- Robert J. Sawyer, Hugo Award-winning author of Hominids and FlashForward

"A great storyteller with a gifted and individual voice."
-- Charles de Lint

"One of Canada's most original writers of speculative fiction."
-- Library Journal

DESCRIPTION:
Paulo and Dino run a quiet little bar in Toronto, happily retired from their former gig of being immortal gods on Olympus... and Asgard... and...

Well, let's just say they've been around.

But their peaceful retirement ends when Pop drops in. And the Father of the Gods has brought company.

Unwanted company.

REVIEWS:
"The Zelazny-inspired "The Boys Are Back in Town" nicely toes the line between quirky humor and pathos."
-- Publishers WeeklY

"A partly funny, partly dark story... I enjoyed this one a lot; one of the most "pure entertainment" tales [from Smith]."
-- Fantasy Book Critic
