You would make Robert Anton Wilson proud, and Douglas Adams smile...This is a collection of nine short stories by David Major, author of The Day of the Nefilim.While the Nefilim was a meandering trip through some of the worlds great conspiracy theories, Air for Fire is a collection of short tales that happen in every timeline but this one.
