Probing Uranus — Tonia Brown

The aliens, time travelers, genetically altered life forms, and a host of other bizarre beings have landed, and they all have one objective: to make you laugh. Collected in Probing Uranus are fourteen science fiction stories that range from the darkly humorous to the outrageous and zany. The strange and wonderful things you'll encounter include an interstellar missionary, a plumber whose job is more complicated than you can imagine, two alien queens with some rather bawdy linguistic problems, and more mayhem than you can shake a mutant pumpkin at. Prepare to be probed!
