Tales that are perfect for coffee breaks - but beware; like chocolate, they lure the listener into just one more.

Paul Michael Peters has created a magical collection of stories that helps the listener look at the day from a different perspective. This is a collection that once you start, you can't put down. Stories are perfect for anyone trying to fit listening into a busy day.

There is something about Peters' writing that is almost intoxicating and leaves you wanting more.

The light feel of the stories is relaxing and charming. Each story carries hints of mystery in connections waiting to be made. Each takes the listener on flights of well-drawn history and place and compelling characterization. A sense of parable and myth builds one story into the next, even when the path is so different. And the whole is a beautifully connected diorama of people and place.

Like your favorite Twilight Zone episodes, there's an otherworldly beauty.
