Stranded: Stories from the Edge of Infinity
by Kimberly Raiser

A Sci-Fi / Speculative Short Fiction Anthology

Book Review

"The short story is hard enough to write. Even more difficult is the short short story. Raiser is a master of both types as evidenced in Stranded. There are generous doses of tales of Sci-Fi, Fantasy, and Horror. Her writings have appeared all over the Internet. This is the first time they have appeared together in one collection. Some of the pieces are dark and sinister while others are very funny. Many of them are in the realm of The Twilight Zone."

About the Author

Kimberly Raiser began her literary career as a poet, dedicated to everything a poet’s life should be—a downward spiral of endless despair. Fortunately, she met and married her “muse,” who coaxed from her an exuberant fiction writer. Today, Kimberly's poetry resides in the dusty pages of her past.

Following several attempts at penning the Great American Novel, Raiser settled on writing short stories. After two years of gathering enough published material for a collection of warped and witty tales, she pieced together a remarkably creative anthology entitled Stranded: Stories from the Edge of Infinity.

From where did this writer's interest in Sci-Fi/Fantasy spring? She attributes it to the influence of her grandfather, Henry Kunicki (Google it!), who grew up with famed physicist David Bohm, who in turn had once worked with a man named Albert Einstein. Kunicki and Bohm used to fantasize about space travel together, weaving a strong element of Sci-Fi throughout the family.

Raiser’s writing has been compared to that of Ray Bradbury, Douglas Adams, and Monty Python, with a few Twilight Zone twists thrown in for good fortune. Not at all bad company to keep--for a New Jersey girl who wound up setting roots among the palm trees of Florida’s oldest city, St. Augustine.
