Josune was recently hired as assistant engineer on the spaceship The Road to the Goberling, but she’s there to spy for her boss, the captain of the Hassim, who wants to learn something only Captain Roystan will know. Unfortunately she ends up on the run anyway after her ex’s “co-worker” threatens Nika’s life. She makes a business deal with his boss so her ex-boyfriend will leave the planet and harass other people instead. But even those famous for their abilities can make dumb decisions: like, say, hook up with a man who becomes an abusive boyfriend. Nika Rik Terri is known as one of the best body modders (as in she modifies human bodies with her machines) in the galaxy. Oh, AND I met Joe at another convention, and he was a cool guy. AND, as it happens, I have somewhat of a geographical connection to the anthology. I found out about this one because of an email submission from our contact form. And then I have some good suggestions on new authors to go chase down. Anthologies just give you so much variety that I can’t help but be glad I read them - despite what overall rating I give them - because there’s usually at least a few good ones that will rise to the top. Anyone out there have a suggestion for some good short fiction I can get my hands on? Something in anthology form and not a collection, if possible (unless it’s really good). You’d think I’d been avoiding them purposefully, but that would definitely be incorrect. Only one other anthology in the last year, in fact. It’s been too long since I read me some short stories.
