A world fell into the void. It put down roots there.\nSomewhere in that world is Town. Its main urban center is Horizon, all overbuilt and Gothic. That's where Principal Entropy keeps his School. He's God or the Devil, the stories say, although they're a bit ambiguous on which.\nI started School about 5 years ago. I've known Kseniya pretty much that whole time---a foot taller than me, stronger than all the boys, with the blood of giants and magicians coming down to her from both sides. I didn't meet most of the others until a year or two later---not Vanessa, who wanders the basements like a spirit in a wan white dress; not Giselle, who's something of a fiend for checkers; not Mikhael, who does chemistry for Lee Scathing and is a bona fide Christian; and certainly not Elya, who I can't actually remember but who probably was nice.\nMom was a scientist---I mean, ordinary science, I mean, clean science, not the other stuff. I don't have as much to remember Dad or Desmond by.This is the story of my first kiss, how I was struck by a dodgeball and achieved enlightenment, and how and why I plan to turn into a brass cephalopodan war machine and rip up Death.\nI'm kind of the boring one, though; it's really rather more about my friends.

For too long the disciplines of thaumatic ursology and political science have held themselves apart, each asserting its own unique magisterium.Isn't it time someone brought these two disparate fields to synthesis?In this revolutionary collection of short stories from the first international symposium on magical bears in the context of contemporary political theory, Dr. Moran reports on such diverse topics as:* the controversial provisions of the Patriot Act that empower "Senator Domino" on his demon-hunting campaign;* the political doctrine that kept the Rainbow World from participating in WWII;* the reasoning behind the recent revaluation of the yuan relative to the dollar;* the use of angels as weapons of war; and* the limitations of and elisions from the media coverage of the invasion and the occupation of Iraq.
