'The Distinct Disadvantage...' was originally written by Sternberg purely to distract himself from grief and/or the mundane. His stories gained an enthusiastic fan base that demanded they be made available for a wider audience, THAT'S YOU. Accompany Sternberg as he joyrides with the King in a stolen rocket, builds his own planet from recycled timber, tries his hand at evolution, begrudgingly celebrates a neighbour's recovery from 'Pinocchio Syndrome', articulates his theory on where ideas come from (and end up) … and that's just the tip of the Sternberg! Still reeling from life attacking him with a hammer, cheer him on as he paddles his life's life boat searching for his ship he is sure is coming in. A must-read for all those in need of distraction from the slog of building their own world. Also contains-: – Improve your chances in a knife fight, – How to stay in love, – Plans to blow up the moon.
