Title
Jaggers & Shad: ABC Is For Artificial Beings Crimes - Paperback
by Barry B. Longyear (Author)
From the seriously warped mind of author Barry B. Longyear. It's a world in which human engrams can be and are copied into bios that can be grown to resemble anything from movie stars to rats, and into mechanicals from lipstick-sized micros up to full-sized mechs. Although all self-aware AB's (Artificial Beings) in the United Kingdom had recently been granted full rights of citizenship, the crimes committed by and against AB's necessitated special laws and its own international branch of law enforcement: Interpol's Artificial Beings Crimes Division. The cases recounted in Jaggers & Shad: ABC is for Artificial Beings Crimes are from the files of Exeter's Devon office, a law enforcement unit one must literally die to get into: Harrington Jaggers, an android that looks like Basil Rathbone; his amdroid partner Guy Shad, the former insurance duck; Jaggers's former partner, an incontinent gorilla amdroid, and running the unit a detective superintendent who is a dead ringer for John Dillinger. Foreword by Her Majesty, Queen Mehitabel. This is the complete award winning series that appeared in Analog plus two previously unpublished cases.
Author Biography
Barry B. Longyear is the first writer (and maybe the only writer) to win the Nebula Award, the Hugo Award, and the John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer in the same year. In addition to his acclaimed Enemy Mine series, his works include numerous short stories, two Alien Nation tie-ins, the Circus World series, the Infinity Hold series, and novels ranging from Sea of Glass to The God Box. His recent works include The Enemy Papers (all three novels of the Enemy Mine series, including the never-before published The Last Enemy and the Drac bible, The Talman) and Dark Corners, hard-hitting stories from the dark side. Over the past few years he has turned his attention to writing murder mysteries, which required training in becoming a private investigator and researching numerous grim and grisly forensic texts. The Jaggers & Shad series uses much of this research combined with science fiction in a humorous vein. He lives in Maine with his wife Regina, two dogs, and several thousand imaginary characters.
