Primordial Chili

"Brilliant. 'Primordial Chili' is as delightful a debut story as I can recall."
--Mike Resnick

"All four are delightfully bizarre, and are read nicely by Gerencer. His comic timing is spot-on, and his authorial voice is so distinct that when I later read a story by him in hardcopy, I could almost hear his voice in my head."
--John Joseph Adams, Locus

Four short science fiction and fantasy stories, read by the author.

Primordial Chili
Have you ever had one of those days when everything just seems to go ? right? Even when it's wrong? "Primordial Chili" is a laugh-out-loud thrill-ride of culinary perfection, taken to cosmic proportions. The planets align, the gods speak, and supper turns out pretty good, too. First published in Science Fiction Age Magazine.

A Taste of Damsel
Anyone can slay a dragon. Well, provided they are dragonslayers, which Colson isn't. But even clerks from copy shops can have heroic qualities and even the very, very old can learn new tricks. First published in Realms of Fantasy Magazine.

Demo Mode
In the future, schools will be outdated and we'll all have knowledge grafted straight into our heads. Just make sure they configure the innoculotron correctly, or you might wind up contracting Esperanto by mistake! First published in Science Fiction Age Magazine.

Trailer Trash Savior
So the millennia have passed, and the time of the reckoning is once more nigh ... not to mention that you've got a busted velvet-Elvis and the oil heat isn't working. Find out what happens when the owner of a mullet and a used AMC Gremlin becomes "the chosen one," and has to battle demons, various and sundry. First published in Brutarian Magazine.
