Getting Saddam's Gold: And Other Short Fiction John Corral

The short stories in this collection were written over the last decade. One appeared in an obscure anthology, another was published in an online magazine, and the remainder are new and original to this anthology. All of them are primarily adventure stories. That is, character and theme are incidental to the plot. Things happen, as opposed to a piece that is a character study or where some idea or interpretation of events is paramount. The object was to tell a good story -unusual and interesting, hopefully, and not moralize about its significance.
