FYI, your “ant” picture is actually that of an ant-mimicking spider. Fascinating creatures, see the link for more info on them.

Thanks Tinkoo,

“Mouse” sounds really cool – I’ve put it on my list of stories to read.

Brown is well regarded by an older generation, but I found him to be inconsistent; his works range from superb (“Star Mouse”) to very good (“Mouse”) to pretty mundane. I’m yet to see anything really good by Reynolds.

“Mouse” is a less creepy version of Campbell’s much filmed “Who Goes There?” Both “Mouse” & Campbell’s original are online – I’ve linked them both in the past.
