Fragments is an Anthology of collected works that define a decades-long career of a South African Speculative Fiction author, where each short story originates in a different decade, and collected side-by-side serves to track the development of the author's hallmark Voice. FRAGMENTS reflect the mid-point works of these four decades.
This collection includes the Short Stories: Inferno: Trouble brews in the idyllic matriarchy. How any society deals with its dissidents is a measure of its maturity, and power and ideals are often uneasy bedfellows. Fragments of Morning: An Ode to Insomnia. What keeps you awake at night? Lawman: The crime-beleaguered city of eGoli in the near future has one sentinel; Ndou, the Lawman. No Heart for the Matter: Myths being what they are, are often simply accepted. What if the truth behind the myths of Lucifer is even stranger? The Folk and the Shellmen: The SS Kristos makes first contact with an ancient, technologically sophisticated alien society. This is that story. El D'Or Dieux: Bonus extract from Omnipresent Occultation.
Fragments represent the best of Caldon Mull's short works around the middle of each of these decades and is the second volume in the 'Smithereens' format series for this type of work.
