Book Description
======
In Rip-Off!, 13 of todayÆs best and most honored writers of speculative
fiction face a challenge even they would be hard-pressed to conceive:
Pick your favorite opening line from a classic piece of fiction (or
even non-fiction) – then use it as the first sentence of an entirely
original short story.
In the world of Rip-Off!, "Call me Ishmael" introduces a tough-as-nails
private eye – who carries a harpoon; The Wonderful Wizard of Oz inspires
the tale of an aging female astronaut whoÆs being treated by a doctor
named Dorothy Gale; and Huckleberry Finn leads to a wild ride with a
foul-mouthed riverboat captain who plies the waters of Hell.
Once you listen to Rip-Off! youÆll agree: If Shakespeare or Dickens
were alive today, theyÆd be ripping off the authors in this great collection.-
