    Summary

    It wasn't Bill—Bill had been dead for years.

    It wasn't an attack by another anomaly—they'd fought off their fair share of those.

    It wasn't even any of the natural health problems you might expect in men of their age and histories—they'd headed off some of those issues, but were both surprisingly hale and hearty, on the whole.

    No. This was something Ford hadn't even thought to fear.

    "I'm thinkin' it's probably time for me to call it a day on this sailin' thing and go home," Stanley said. "We’ve both gotta find our own way in the world sooner or later, right?”

    Summary

    It wasn’t that Stan was dumb. He just wasn’t as smart as his brother. But when you’re constantly being compared to your extremely gifted twin, there’s no silver for second place.

    Summary

    When he opens his eyes, it's dark. Water pools around his shined shoes and he can see himself: not with petals, or a thin stem and a few little leaves, or a bundle of stamen and pistils. No, with a fitting vest, a finely-tailored shirt, and sleek slacks over long legs. With two bright eyes and swooping hair the color of daffodils, his skin glowing like a cherub's. Ears. A pointed nose. A mouth.

    A mouth in which to speak.

    And, oh, speak is what he will do.
