Melody Wilder just needs to complete her dissertation and life will be perfect. Alas, that's not going to happen. She hasn't picked a topic yet, her undergraduate loans have been "un-forgiven" with a vengeance, the university is about to strip her of her stipend, her job, and her apartment, and a pirate-priest minotaur is systematically destroying her life. Meanwhile, alien bear cub physicists are trying to extradite her best friend on charges of violating the laws of conservation of matter every time he makes a pizza! And things are just getting started. A blend of colorful aliens, explorations of cognitive psych and the nature of memory, and the healing power of a good slice of pizza, Slice of Entropy is a rollicking romp of science fiction fun and adventure that will leave you hungry for more.
Author
Lawrence M. Schoen holds a Ph.D. in cognitive psychology, is a past Astounding, Hugo, and Nebula, nominee, twice won the Cóyotl award for best novel, founded the Klingon Language Institute, and occasionally does work as a hypnotherapist specializing in authors’ issues. He is a chimeric cancer survivor. His science fiction includes many light and humorous adventures of a space-faring stage hypnotist and his alien animal companion. Other works take a very different tone, exploring aspects of determinism and free will, generally redefining the continua between life and death. Sometimes he blurs the funny and the serious. Lawrence lives near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania with his wife and their dog.
