Review # 1 was written on 2013-08-28 00:00:00 Anit Shortridge Michael Vlado is a leader in his small Rumanian village, where he farms and raises horses. Unlike many Gypsies, his tribe are settled, not migratory. At the request of his friend militia captain Seger, he sometimes helps solves crimes, usually those involving some of his fellow Rom. From locked room mysteries to more conventional tales, Vlado can usually figure out the culprit, sometimes to his sorrow. Entertaining and also enlightening about the plight of Gypsies in eastern Europe.

Review # 2 was written on 2020-08-30 00:00:00 Gregory Nibling Journey Across Three Worlds - Overall a good story but it got bogged down in the middle with a lengthy description of the "scientific theory" behind traveling between worlds. The Gigantic Fluctuation - a good story but it can be found in the novel Space Apprentice by the Strugatsky brothers. The Snowball - a time travel story. Cadet Ploshkin - a funny story of a cadet trying to get out of work. The Two - a story about communing with nature in the future. The Girl Nothing Happens To - science fiction for children (but still quite good). Also published under the titles: "Alice the Girl from Earth," "Life Is So Dull for Little Girls," "Alice," "The Girl Who Triumphs Over Everything," and "The Little Girl Nothing Ever Happens To." The Seventh Floor - a story about using computers to educate children.
