Short Story: Planetkiller

Happy Easter, everybody. It’s always nice to sit back and celebrate the day that Christ was hatched again from a giant chocolate egg. It’s even sunny outside.

If you fancy something to do with your eyes while eating copious amounts of chocolate, why not take a look at this short story? It’s another one I wrote a few years ago (2018 judging by the metadata), and like ‘First Contact‘ it was based on a prompt from /r/WritingPrompts on reddit:

“After Paris was razed by an alien weapon the world awaits the imminent invasion. What humanity doesn’t know is that it was just a stray shot of a war fought millennia ago.”

Paris does not appear in this story, but I liked the idea a lot. Maybe eventually I’ll work it up into something longer.

Read and enjoy here.
