Twenty-two fantastical stories that prove the art of spinning a tale with wit is alive and kicking. This is SF: Sardonic Fiction! 

The stories in Witpunk–ranging from science fiction to fantasy to crime stories to horror–span reading takes from dark comedy to laugh-out-loud farce, from surrealistic fancy to cautionary satire, from rebellious transgression to exuberant hilarity, there’s gonzo weirdness on every page.  Some of these stories are original to this anthology while others have appeared in print before.  What they share is a unique perspective on the human condition: can we make reading fun and mind-expanding again? 

Includes work from Cory Doctorow, Robert Silverberg, Nina Kiriki, Pat Murphy, Pat Cadigan, Paul Di Filippo, William Browning Spencer, Leslie What and more.
