Delightful, unusual volume -- charming stories
I first read about Terry Bisson (as I read about most science fiction or fantasy authors) in the pages of Interzone magazine, which much later I was proud to write for myself. There was something compelling and quirky about the Bisson interview and then, as a boy, I remember trying to find his work. I found TALKING MAN and VOYAGE TO THE RED PLANET, but the interview's reference to an award-winning story called 'Bears Discover Fire' had always been in the back of my mind. When the author died recently, I thought I'd do what little I could to honour his memory, and I bought the book with that story in it, also called BEARS DISCOVER FIRE. I'm about halfway through and it's a delightful volume.
