The fast-paced and inventive “Fair Verona” is up to R. Garcia y Robertson’s usual high standards. Mr. Garcia’s latest books include The Virgin and the Dinosaur (1996) and its sequel Atlantis Found (spring 1997). Both novels were published by AvoNova, and both are partly based on stories published in Asimov’s. The author’s next book, a collection of short fictions entitled The Moon Maid and Other Fantastic Stories, will be out soon from Golden Gryphon Press. The book will provide a hard-cover home for a number of tales that first appeared in our pages
