<B>Hardback Version</B><P/P><P>In the distant future, a drug smuggler disappears after meeting with a vicious dealer, and his lover, Jess Ichikawa, a young, emotionally unstable swordswoman, sets out to find him. Accompanied by her sole friend, a singing, genetically modified toad, she finds herself in the middle of a brutal, complex struggle between interstellar criminal gangs that takes her from one strange world to another and brings her into conflict with various deadly mobsters and deviants.
<P/P><P>Drawing on story-telling conventions from India, <I>Melting Worlds</I> is an absurd, poetic, grotesque, and unclassifiable tale enlivened with wild, impossible action, byzantine plots, ornate descriptions, outlandish technologies, introspective moments, bizarre occurrences, and philosophical allusions.
<P/P><P>Also available as a trade paperback and an e-book at <a href="http://stores.lulu.com/kapali">Dorian Pratt's store</A> on Lulu.
