If I were you

Does size matter? Is bigger better? That's no small question to Tom Little--the circus midget with giant dreams.
Tom may be king of the midgets, but he's got far grander ambitions--to become the muscleman at the top, the ringmaster. Now, drawing on some dark ancient secrets and mystic texts, he's about to get his wish....
Assuming another man's identity, Tom discovers he must also take on his sins, debts, and enemies. He may be living large--but now there are those who want to make him pay for the big man's sins.
Also includes "The Last Drop," an astounding tale of a New York bartender who mixes some very magical drinks--to amazing effect.
The circus is coming to town, as If I Were You puts you in the center ring of the magic, mystery, and madness.

"You are wondering," said the Professor, "why I have sent for you." His voice was very low and Little Tom had to put his ear close to the evil-smelling lips. "In your mind," said the Professor, "you are turning over the reasons for this. I must put you at ease, for I have always respected you." Little Tom was startled. "Yes," said the Professor, "I have seen much to admire in you. On the lot about me, men are afraid. They spread away from me when I approach. But you . . . you were brave, Tom Little. You did not cower away. You had steel enough in you not only to meet me and speak to me, but you also had courage enough to risk my wrath--a thing which all other men feared." -- L.
