Why must an amnesiac murder a prophetess who promises a return to the earth? Why does an honest winged maintenance worker get caught up in an interplanetary drug-smuggling ring? Why must a former graduate student steal from an intelligent disease? These are questions that characters must answer in the thirteen stories of The Assassin of Acheron and Other Stories. A habitat in the Oort Cloud that has gone silent, a stolen grimoire that must be kept from its owners, a sign in a night sky that reveals a homeworld's destruction -- these are the challenges to courage, ingenuity, and hope. If you were a slave, could you save an unjustly convicted man from execution? If you could save a world only by destroying its magic, would you destroy it? If it would win you respect from your true love, would you face a champion in a hopeless contest? No choice is easy. To save a city of peace from the vengeance of war, to steal a book of ultimate magic, to keep an endless watch for a legendary foe -- these are tasks for the strong of heart. When you've lost your past, what future will you choose?
