Spacecrafts hurtling toward alien worlds. Second chances for civilizations. First contact. Rebirth. Non-humans looking for a new life. Opportunities for fresh starts and do-overs far from Earth. These stories and more explore the theme of RE-LAUNCH. And the anthology has landed (see September 3, et al.), in print and in my mailbox late Wednesday afternoon. It’s an all-reprint book, the first of four in Pole to [image error]Pole Publishing’s “Re-Imagined” series, all of which also have stories by me, so check these pages for future information. The oldest in this one harks back to 1954, “Shipwreck in the Sky” by Eando Binder (actually brothers Earl and Otto — ask your grandparents*), but leaping from there to a couple from 1999, one from 2005, three (including mine) from 2007, and eleven more from more recent times. My story, “The Game,” published in the British e-zine HUB in November 2007 is about a spaceman stranded in an alien port who, by winning a game that is stacked against him, may yet gain redemption.
