“This collection is a Magical Mystery Tour through alternate universes where the familiar narrative of the Beatles is turned on its head. Or ear. Or ass. It’s fun, irreverent, sexy, and twisted–just like the Fab Four themselves.” — Vicki Peterson, The Bangles

“”It’s the Beatles in the Twilight Zone of infinite possibilities! Highly recommended!” — Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of V-Wars and Rage

“Across the Universe is a fantastic, freewheeling, and imaginative romp of a collection. Totally engrossing.” — Paul Marshall, Strawberry Alarm Clock

“Even non-fans will find stories here that will move and surprise them.” — Library Journal (starred review)

“Beatles aficionados and fantasy fans will enjoy this affectionate, speculative homage.” — Publishers Weekly

It’s available in hard cover or paperback!
