Wil Wheaton Rides a Unicorn Kitten to Battle Lupus in 'Clash of the Geeks'

Wil Wheaton and others have collaborated in creating a collection of short stories somewhat revolving around a clown-sweater wearing Wil Wheaton, an orcish John Scalzi, and 'Pegasus Unicorn Kitten'. If that doesn't fill you up with fuzzy wuzzies, then consider this; 100% of money raised by the e-book will be donated to the Lupus Alliance of America.

Valente with the Andre Norton Award for The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making.
