Heat of fusion and other stories

John M. Ford was an astoundingly good writer and this collection of quixotic short stories and poetry shows off the diverse array in whit and whimsy of which Ford was capable. One of the best surprise reads I've ever purchased purely on a whim. Highly recommended to all looking for something to shake up their collection of science fiction and especially to those who love endlessly re-readable poetry and short stories which are as entertaining as they are broad and thought-provoking.
