FUTURE FARM STORIES

This book often has price deals!

I wanted to include another story in this book and so I included the single-page “Earth Fault,” with my character, Monitor. It's one of the stories where he is a child and was inspired by my visit to an enormous air base and by looking at some of the wartime air-base-style houses. The road to the enormous air base was little more than a lane and, even at that, appeared little used. It was as if all the business of the air base concerned only the sky and the people there had little use for the land at all.

“Earth Fault” features as its final panel, the appearance of a dazzling sunset that is seen to flow through the house. The book is black and white. I gave it some thought. So the panel with the sunset is repeated on the colour back cover.

An official-looking reference to being “Approved by the Agricultural Standards Institute” appears on the book's title page, accompanied by the silhouette of a cow. There is no such body. It is purely imaginary.
