NOTES
Minotaur Maze is Robert Sheckley's modern take on the myth of the Minotaur. It is a tour de force of imagination, fantasy, and creative confusion. Through brief chapters running from "How Theseus Got His First Mintoauring Job" to "I Hate to Blame Daedalus for Everything," "The Attack of the Self Pity Plant," "Daedalus Dispenses with Causality," and finally, "Falling Through the Story," we travel a maze as lethally complicated as the Minotaur's and arrive at the end breathless with wonder, surprise, and laughter. Sheckley, a master of science fiction, has been called "a precursor to Douglas Adams" by the New York Times
