Blurb: “TRUE NAMES. nd Other Dangers

The names they use are not their own: Mr. Slippery, the Mailman, Erythrina the Red Witch, the Slimey Limey. And they would rather turn over heir grandmothers than reveal their rue Names.

In the age of computerized magic, these witches and warlocks use scalp-connects and customized software instead of spells. Most of their electronic "sorcery" is petty, but the stakes are about to go sky-high. Someone-or something-is threatening to upset the balance of power, not only in the electronic underground, but in the real world itself.

"Do not miss this ingenious and truly original story." - Analog

INCLUDES FOUR BONUS STORIES EACH ANOTHER DANGER...”
