"These three pieces give an example of my work in the three genres of fantasy, dark fantasy and sf. ''How Enlightenment Came to the Tower'' first appeared in a small press magazine in the UK called Scheherazade, but the version in ''Three Heralds'' is much revised. ''Such a Nice Girl'' is previously unpublished, while ''Last Come Assimilation'' appeared in a collection called ''Digital Dreams''. As to what inspired each individual story, it''s difficult to say. It might have been a conversation I overheard, a newspaper story, a film, a picture or just a particular feeling"--Storm Constantine, author comments on amazon.com, Aug. 20, 1997.
