Four different images rotate in the space above; you can refresh this page to see them all. Each appears at the top of one of the four quarters of the story as well. I wish I could say they’re my handiwork, but that credit goes to Schezar .

Minneapolis resident Orion O’Reilly goes fishing in the remote wilderness of northern Minnesota, but he is the one who gets reeled in…by aliens who have more than just catch-and-release on their minds.

Orion awakens from his involuntary tranquilization and within minutes finds himself in the hands—literally—of Zarbaxa, a young Quorilaxian woman. Soaring to a height of 121 feet and resembling an anthropomorphic feline, she is anything but a little green man, which is only the first surprise among many in this story someone likened to “Gulliver’s Travels in space.” Everyone and everything in Orion’s new life seems to dwarf him to the point of complete irrelevance, but importance is not measured with a ruler.

If you’re so inclined, you can check out "Quorilax Word Search"  [E]. There are no spoilers, and you can learn some interesting tidbits and see some of the people, places, and things that are important to the story.
