Stan I.S. Law (nome de plume of Stanislaw Kapuscinski), an architect, sculptor and prolific writer was educated in Poland and England. Since 1965 he has resided in Canada. His special interests cover a broad spectrum of arts, sciences and philosophy. His fiction and non-fiction attest to his particular passion for the scope and the development of Human Potential. He authored more than forty books, twenty of them novels. His novels have often been described as visionary fiction, and/or spiritual thrillers. His short fiction has also been shortlisted for the CBC Literary Awards.
Under his real name, he published eighteen non-fiction books sharing his vision of reality. He also composed two collections of poems in his original native tongue, in which he satirizes his view of the world while paying homage to Bozena Happach's sculptures.
As an architect [RIBA, MRAIC, OAQ ret.] he designed a number of high-rise buildings in Montreal, including Regency Hyatt Hotel (now Delta), Place Mercantile, Headquarters for the Mutual Alliance, as well as a number of low and middle rise structures for private clients. In the National Capital, he was the associate in charge of the design of the Royal Bank Headquarters on Sparks Street.

I have such a great time reading Law’s books; they always appeal to one’s intellect and allow your creative imagination some exercise. I have read ‘Sci-Fi series 1’ and loved it; so it only felt right that I should give ‘Sci-Fi series 2’ a try. I’m glad I did, although I don’t expect anything less from such talent.
His incredible stories, which are a combination of humor, wit and excellent story-telling, make these short stories mini- masterpieces. If anyone were to write a book under the alias of Stan I.S. Law, you would spot the imposter immediately.
I live in hope that Stan Law never stops writing; his books are a joy to read. I highly recommend this book!!
