Terminal Space

Book 3 in the New-Classic Sci-Fi Series

Twenty-plus sci-fi stories from the lighter side, many of them illustrated.

• More from the lighter, laughing side than the dark-dungeoned depths; but they’re all here somewhere, from a satisfied smile; or shed a tear.
• Maybe a “Yes! Get in there”. Or catch your breath at the trials that some have to face.
• From crackling two-pagers where someone hasn’t quite read the situation right, to sixty-plus sides chronicling what you really have to do if you want to survive on this planet.
• Tales of here and now, wondering what’s among us; or what awaits us amid the distant futures and far-strewn arms of the galaxy.
• The stories you’ve dreamed of; the people you crave to meet; or would love to be.
• The aliens who’ll make you shiver, or laugh.
• The huge risks of guiding your spacecraft here, or there.
• The adventures you’d have if only you had the nerve…
• Or the utter romance of doing that… and in null-grav, too
• The humour of orbital disasters and alien conflicts; the perils of ill-advised time-interference.
• The terrors of a leaky hull; the fear of a bullying boss when you’re a thousand light years beyond.
• The choices you face in the big, black Vac.
