Greg Mellor
The debut collection by Greg Mellor.
Introduction by Damien Broderick.
"The stories, and Mellor’s afterwords about the history and intent of each piece, will resonate long after you’ve read the last page." - Cosmos Magazine.
Greg Mellor, the awesome creative talent behind the Wild Chrome collection, talks about the book as part of the Wednesday Writers.
"As I continued to produce more short stories for Wild Chrome during 2010 and 2011, I found that the cross roads of ideas, entertainment, science and humanity is also the stomping ground for reflection and a little philosophy. I don’t claim to do the philosophy very well, but damn it, I like having a go."

Greg Mellor's science fiction collection, Wild Chrome, was recently launched at Smiths Alternate Bookshop in Canberra.
We're told that the bookshop sold out of its entire stock for the night. The incredible Jack Dann was MC, and the amazing Cat Sparks was on hand to take some fabulous pictures.

“This is a tour de force, and by itself is proof that Gregory Mellor is a writer to watch in the way we kept an eye on Ursula K. Le Guin and Brian W. Aldiss and Roger Zelazny when they were setting out, learning to pilot their burning imaginations into the realm of words shaped to ignite the dreams of their readers.”
