<p>A pile of rats having an identity crisis. A sexy robot rebellion. A velociraptor revenge wedding. The world''s horniest scientist. Enter ''Sexy Tales of Paleontology'': a world of queer romance, (dis)connection, and artifical intelligence told with Patrick Lenton''s idiosyncratic bizarreness and heart. Lenton''s short stories combine laugh-out-loud humour with an honest-to-goodness sensibility. Sci-fi oddities, pop culture, a lesser-known Kardashian who lives on the moon, and a deft turn of comic absurdity bound through this truly queer romp of a book. But beyond all this, at the beating heart of the book, is the foolishness, horror, and delight that is love and heartbreak and 43 rats.</p>
