Exploitation and Other Stories is about 60% science fiction (SF) and 40% other genres (fantasy, mystery, and flash fiction). The title piece, "Exploitation," is a novella about space exploration, while most of the other SF stories involve alien encounters. The speculative flash fiction pieces serve to form a bridge between the last few SF stories and the first of the fantasy stories, all of which have religious connotations of one sort or another. After a few more fantasy stories, the collection concludes with several mysteries (stories of crime or the investigations following a crime), the last of which is a cross-genre science fiction mystery.
