Produktbeschreibung

Calder is normally a kick-ass hype comm tech, but because she's too afraid to transport via interstellar body faxing, she's spending time and credits to travel home the old-fashioned way by space ship. Then she discovers through her Paradise Operating Interface (in the form of a Red Messenger devil, no less) that the pilgrim ship won't be making its scheduled stop for her transfer. Instead, the ship will end in everyone's destructionas planned.

David Brin wrote: "Death and Faxes, by Vincent Miskell, takes a tongue-in-cheek look at travel in the future. . . ."

This short story is by the author of Godspeed Inc.: A Naomi Kinder Adventure (available free on Smashwords) and Rescuing the Future: A Naomi Kinder Novel, also available on Smashwords.
