More than blood and guts, sex and postapocalyptical musing, \u003cem\u003eBlack Kettle\u003c\/em\u003e derives its power from an understanding of both the human mind and the human soul. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn the novella \u003cem\u003eBlack Kettle\u003c\/em\u003e, witness the moments immediately preceding, during, and after two galactic earth-shattering events.
