“Innovative take on the well-loved theme of fairies and dangerous wishes.”?Publishers WeeklyPop goddess Selane has made some bad choices in her life on her road to success. All of her past connections have dropped her and she’s desperately trying to get them (and her reputation) back.While running a charity telethon for a debilitating children’s disease, Selane discovers a remarkable girl during a broadcast – a real genie – and suddenly the solution to all of her problems is standing right in front of her. But finding a genie is one thing…making wishes that count, is something else—particularly when the genie is a clueless teenager from California. Maybe Ray, a fairy godmother, and the local 26-3 chapter of The Fairy Godmothers’ Union can help. Angelina Adams’ companion piece follows the young genie, Vickie, as she travels to New Mexico. On her journey, a whole new host of characters befriend her, including Raj Chandra, a senior genie in the Demons, Djinni and Efreets Guild, and Indira, whose jealousy is bound to cause even more prob¬lems for the teenage wish granter.

"Good science and entertaining writing make this a fast, entertaining read."-Publishers Weekly>p>Fools' Experiments is a near-future technothriller-a tale of artificial life, artificial intelligence, and world-threatening hubris.

As disasters multiply, computer scientist Doug Carey knows that unconventional measures may be civilization's last hope. And that any artificial life-form learns very fast ...."Lerner puts his expertise in computer science ... to good use in this exciting and unsettling near-future thriller. It's an ambitious idea for a novel, and Lerner carries it off in style, capturing our interest and our acceptance of his premise from the very beginning."-Booklist"Part hard-wired sf and part intrigue and suspense. A good choice for readers who prefer their sf with a heavy dose of hard science along with fast-paced storytelling."- Library Journal
