A Book of Stories

In this captivating collection of short stories, Michael D. Stansbie takes readers on a thrilling journey across various genres and settings. From the dusty outback of Australia to the farthest reaches of the galaxy, these tales are woven together by the common threads of adventure, intrigue, and the indomitable human spirit. Meet a diverse cast of characters as they navigate the challenges of their worlds: a lady school teacher who defies expectations in rural Queensland, a pirate queen seeking to reclaim her lost treasure, a bandit couple turning the tables on a greedy bank, a daring ship captain rescuing a damsel in distress, a young space traveller on a quest to save her parents’ legacy, and a mysterious woman exacting her own brand of justice on the highways of Australia. Through each story, Stansbie explores the depths of human nature, the bonds of friendship and love, and the eternal struggle between good and evil.
