Jeapes Japes

In this collection by Ben Jeapes-a bullied schoolboy escapes into his own future-the spirit of Karl Marx lives on in a bolshie artificial intelligence-digital cats prowl a computer network to keep it safe from intruders-a network of grandmothers patrols our streets very, very slowly-and a man is put on trial for his life by aliens who barely understand human law, yet alone human nature.Plus twelve more stories, including one never before seen in print. These seventeen stories represent the complete early work of Ben Jeapes - at least, as complete as he is prepared to let anyone see without considerably more money exchanging hands than you have paid so far.
