"Border" (Gräns). Best short story, ever. With the possible exception of LTODD.
I have to agree - Gräns (Border) is a very good story, and it will be highly interesting to see it discussed here once it's available in English. Also, don't forget that the book will also include the sequel to Handling the Undead, called (presumably) The Final Handling, which is one of JALs stories that I personally hold in very high regard.

I'm curious now...if John thinks that is the best thing he has written, then that is saying something big and now the curiosity has risen...considering that I thought Little Star was his finest piece of work so far (seriously, I really think Little Star is the best thing JAL has written so far)

Anyways...bring on August...I really can not wait to read another JAL Book...that and I'm dying off anticipation to read Let the Old Dreams Die
Just to clarify, if I remember the exact words, johnajvide said he considered Little Star to be his best "book," but maybe not his best story.

I'll break open the story and tell you what is there. Then, like the others that have fallen out onto the sand, I will finish with it, and the wind will take it away.
