Choot 'Em!!

A HUMAN STAIN by Kelly Robson is a confusing short story. Apparently, the parents are some kind of alligator hybrids who give birth to tasty grub children. Not sure if the first-born is the one who received all the human DNA, but he's a little creep in any case.

The governess-to-be is into young girls, even if the girl in question has her mouth wired for dietary reasons. The cook and the steward are pretty chill, considering all the crazy crap happening around them.

I don't know how in the hell this won an award, especially since the Nebula Award is given to works of science fiction and fantasy, not Lovecraft-tripping-balls-with-the-munchies.

As always,
