A STITCH BETWEEN WORLDS is the first short story collection from Frasier Armitage.
“The differences between worlds — they’re like two tapestries, one made of silk and the other of wool. But this door is a needle that sends me between them, and I’m what stitches them together.”
A future where memory is currency; a land of dinosaurs seeking the refuge of outer space; a city where events in the present can change the past; a family of colonists escaping grief on a distant planet; a dragon breathing fire on the bourgeoisie; an astronaut craving the power of flight.
Across the many Earths, change is the only constant. Every new tomorrow is a new beginning, whether you’re a superhero trying to hide your power from your boss, or an alien invasion has made you the richest person in the universe. Collected in this short story omnibus from Frasier Armitage are a catalogue of beginnings that stretch beyond the seams of our world. Step through a door to this unique multiverse of science fiction and fantasy in the first volume of short stories from the acclaimed author of NEW YESTERDAY and TIME’S ELLIPSE, and travel to places that are only bound together by A STITCH BETWEEN WORLDS.
”A STITCH BETWEEN WORLDS is equal parts cinematic, entertaining, witty, and thought-provoking — an inventive collection spanning across time and genres through tales of planetary real estate, the cost of memory, time travel heists, child prodigies, androids, noir mysteries, parenthood, all while exploring what truly matters most in life.” — Ai Jiang, Bram Stoker and Nebula award-winning author of LINGHUN and I AM AI.
”I absolutely loved every single story included in this collection. Strong writing, well thought out concepts, and super fast paces. This might be one of my favorite collections I’ve ever read.” — CJ Daley, author of BestGhost
”A STITCH BETWEEN WORLDS is a thoughtful collection of wildly original stories filled with complex, flawed characters you just can’t help but root for. Just when I think I’ve read what will be my favorite story of the bunch, I read the next and have a new favorite all over again. Taken separately, each story explores complicated relationships, thought-provoking situations, and wild fictional worlds. Taken together, the collection examines the nature of impossible choices, the influence of fate, and what it means to be alive.” — MJ Kuhn, author of AMONG THIEVES and THICK AS THIEVES
”A STITCH BETWEEN WORLDS is filled with unique worlds and masterful storytelling. I highly recommend that you add it to the very top of your TBR.” — Paige, FanFiAddict
