Eyes burn scant inches from the glass, my voice is hoarse.   I don’t manage to explain it the first few times, instead gulp and blink dazedly at a world untouched by the heat and pain I’d stepped away from.  It wasn’t a balm – instead an earlier time, and I knew it.  Even if I didn’t believe.  Even if I thought it was a fever dream – that I’d come down with another bad infection and I was lying in a hospital bed, or against a thick leaded pain of glass in the ward, my hands draped lifelessly over the edge of the bay seat in that quiet, still, cocooned ward.

Change, a breakout scifi novel by D Kai Wilson features a dizzying blend of perspectives, an honest and raw look at what people would do if thier world suddenly changed, and a touching, moving conversation with past and future selves.

From tomorrow – I’ll post where I’ve gotten to – and a request for random input – so please check back/subscribe to the site (sidebar) and I’ll thank the person who gave me the ‘random’ element each day 🙂
