Back Cover text
THE DANGERS OF FIDDLING WITH THE FUTURE
Lloyd Biggie, Jr. says in this book that science fiction writers do not predict. What they say is, “if something or other continues, this is what could happen.”
Besides being a science fiction writer, Biggle is also a musician with a doctorate in the arts. And in THE METALLIC MUSE he has presented seven fine science fiction stories of what could happen in the world of music and art and television “if this goes on.”
This becomes thereby a special book on several counts. Not only are the stories top-rate reading, but they also present some mind-boggling predictions.
As the author also says, sometimes “predicting it made it happen.”
And adds, “I didn’t mean to do it.”
