The holidays mean many things to many people. "Christmas Beyond the Box" takes that notion a great deal farther, and provides some truly unconventional looks at the season from several unusual perspectives. Suitable for all but the very young, there's sure to be a tale worth re-telling in this collection for many Christmases to come. As a bonus, the collection includes a novel excerpt from "Under Saint Owain's Rock," a contemporary romantic comedy co-authored by Josh Langston and Barbara Galler-Smith.Though the stories in the collection take place during the holidays, don't assume they won't generate smiles at any time of the year. Beginning with a race of holiday sprites who can't stand the limelight and ending with an eccentric billionaire who only sees his family the day *after* Christmas, this collection provides enough laughs, sighs, and insights to satisfy the most discriminating tastes.If you're looking for something different -- something that isn't just another "Frosty Saves Christmas" or "Nelda Knits Mittens for Kittens" -- this is the collection for you. Don't miss it!
