The Alternate Reality News Service is proud to announce its latest collection of paper cutting edge journalism! Oww! Better put some disinfectant on that reportage!

The Street Finds Its Own Uses for Mutant Technologies is the fourth book in the series of humourous science fiction journalism. In this volume, killing people with guns made by 3-D printers, then melting them down and using the materials to create sculptures becomes an art movement. A satirical Web site’s reputation comes into question when it accidentally publishes a true story. Long passages of exposition from speculative fiction stories make their way into the Info Dump on the outskirts of the city. And, the war on doughnuts takes some unusual – but unusually tasty – turns.

Sweet!
