A Wish Upon a Fallen Sky is a clever collection of short, speculative fiction stories by Minneapolis Author, Rob Callahan. The stories vary in length, and you may think the shortest are only a couple pages long, but when you get to Appendix A, you'll find a treasure trove of twitter-length stories (back when twitter kept it real at 140 characters)

Appendix B contains artwork and story covers inspired by Rob's writing, and created by illustrator Whittney A Streeter.

Keep your eyes open for a hidden track. Oh, and the pop culture references. If you don't see the humor in "Episode for a New Hope" then... well, I can't help you. But even if you're pop-culture blind you'll still enjoy a battle of wits between a circus trapeze and a safety net, brain controlling spiders, and what happens when everyone becomes telepathic.

Plenty of quick, fun reads by a damn fine storyteller.
