Rare Unsigned Copy: Tales of Rocketry, Ineptitude, and Giant Mutant Vegetables
Rare Unsigned Copy: Tales of Rocketry, Ineptitude, and Giant Mutant Vegetables is a collection of short (and mostly warped) SF and fantasy stories from Simon Petrie, including several previously-unpublished gems. Touching on such important, diverse, and hitherto-ignored topics as the sex life of mythical reptiles, the anachronistic hazardousness of the humble ham sandwich, and the application of radiation-induced gigantism to market gardening, Petrie’s work is a direct challenge to the dictum that truth is stranger than fiction.
If you’ve ever wondered about what to do about that inexplicable triceratops in your backyard, about what happened next in that classic match-up between Hare and Tortoise, or about the absolute very worst thing you can have happen to you while you’re ransacking that idyllic alien planet, then you need to read "Rare Unsigned Copy."
It’s not all off-planet, off-the-wall, or off-colour. Some of the stories in "Rare Unsigned Copy" are speculation pure and simple, played with a straight bat. But for the most part, the stories dwell on life’s unexpected absurdities, like dealing with that artificial intelligence that either wants you, or wants you off its ship, or wants to hold onto that last unique item in its carefully-organised inventory. Even if said item might well be a life-saver.

The Gordon Mamon Casebook
A collection of five SF/mystery stories from New Zealand born, Australian-based author, Simon Petrie. (Warning: may contain puns.)
The adventures of Gordon Mamon, space elevator employee and reluctant detective, are described in ‘Murder on the Zenith Express’, ‘Single Handed’, ‘The Fall Guy’, ‘The Hunt for Red Leicester’, and ‘A Night to Remember’.
