Cameron Philips and the Great Cosmic
Do-over
Jon Wesick
On Novikov Station, they planned to make a stable artificial wormhole swallow its own tail. In theory, this might allow them to
send information — a beam of coherent light — back in time. Of course, the universe seemed to have other ideas.
Distant Star
Noel Denvir
Playing Irish folk music for an inattentive and half-drunk pub crowd was not exactly Jim's idea of a dream gig. But the

courage and luck she could muster if she was to survive.
The Human Touch
Kim Rush
Kerr had to outwit the big cat and take the antelope carcass back to Klee and Little One. His chances of survival, let alone

The Philip's Baby
Joseph
Jordan
The doctors told Antonella Philip that she was crazy to try to carry her baby — conceived the old-fashioned way — to
term in her own womb. After all, the virus that had swept across North America made birth defects all but certain…
What We Said That Day
Dianne
Rees
She had abandoned her crewmates on a new world — under orders? She wasn't sure anymore. It was hard to be sure of
anything in this place where the laws of space and time didn't seem to apply.
