- Summary
- The bulk of these stories comprise what the author calls a 'Grand Tour of the Solar System,' moving from one thoroughly imagined setting to another with deceptive ease. 'The funhouse effect' is a tale of mystery, intrigue, and illusion that takes place on a mechanized comet moving toward the sun s corona. Retrograde summer is an account of gender reversals and family secrets set against the radically unstable backdrop of Mercury. Bagatelle pits a recurring Varley character--Police Chief Anna-Louise Bach against a living bomb that threatens to devastate Luna's Dresden City. Other stories range from Venus ('In the Bowl') to an underground 'Disneyland' on Pluto ('Good-Bye, Robinson Crusoe') to the unexplored reaches of deep space ('The Black Hole Passes')
