eBook Description: Meet the girl who became a beautiful dirigible; the housewife who led an army against an evil empire; the author who really wrote the great works of western literature--these are but a few of the fascinating people who inhabit the worlds of Mark Bourne. Featuring eleven stories, Mars Dust and Magic Shows provides a glimpse into the secret lives of Sherlock Holmes, William Shakespeare, Al Capone, King Kong, and dozens of lesser-known heroes, monsters, and players. Climb aboard, and find out why authors, editors, and readers are calling Mark Bourne "a gifted story teller," "a wonderful read," and "absolutamente delicioso." [Note: "Being Human" is also available separately as a short story.]

"Mark Bourne is a gifted storyteller who can also turn a phrase. His work is detailed and subtle. He creates a world in a single sentence. Do not miss this collection of short stories."--Kristine Kathryn Rusch
"Mark Bourne is one of science fiction's best-kept secrets. Only his readers know how brilliant he is."--Mike Resnick "One of the most interesting of the new crop of SF writers. Mark Bourne's stories combine an interest in ideas with living, breathing characters. You will enjoy this book."--Nancy Kress "If you are already familiar with Mark Bourne's stories, you don't need to take my word for how good they are. If you have not yet encountered Mark Bourne's work, you are about to experience wonders and delights. What are you waiting for?"--Esther M. Friesner "Mark Bourne's stories combine an antic wit and sure-stepping prose, along with enough skewed insight into the human condition to qualify as x-ray snapshots of the contents of more than a few of your acquaintances' heads. If literary grace and humor were sold in cans, a collection like this would come in a fifty-five-gallon drum."--K.W. Jeter "Absolutamente delicioso."--Bucanero
"A collection of short stories that flutter along like butterflies and come back to burrow into your mind like yellow jackets.... Really, that's what Bourne does best: leaving you plenty to mull over later, whether you had planned to or not."--Lisa DuMond, SFSite
