Terror in the Void (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The stories in this book all take place in the universe of my two previous novels, "Orchid in the Void" and "Saving Mars". The theme of all three stories is the awe and mystery and the frequent terror that inhabits the void. Not just outer space as we refer to it, but the unknown that manifests in that convoluted collection of cells between our ears. It is the unknown that at once beckons us and repels us. It invites us to visit haunted houses, watch the movie with scenes that we know will force us to cover our eyes, and read books that will keep us awake at night.

"Charity and the Space Monster" follows the adventures of a futuristic detective/bounty hunter as she attempts to solve a mystery involving a hostile alien life form that's threatening early Martian colonists.

"Freddie's Ghost" is set on a hollowed-out asteroid and involves a popular musician who purchases a seemingly haunted mansion and is then forced to share it with a girl with a mysterious past.

In "The Creature That Ate Sagan City", Freetrader Pete Soñador returns to Mars after 30 years to find it threatened by an experiment run amok.

Will this book keep you awake at night, if perhaps not just to finish it? I invite you to read it and discover for yourself.

Autorenporträt

Geologist, cyclist, home brewer, and author all describe Steve Whitting. His formative years were spent in Fayetteville, Arkansas building model rockets, stargazing with his friends, and reading science fiction. Graduating with a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Arkansas in 1978, he had aspirations of becoming the first Geologist to visit the planet Mars. When that didn't pan out, he began writing short fiction in his spare time. Over the years those story concepts grew and eventually coalesced into his first novel, "Orchid in the Void".

When he isn't busy pursuing his profession as an Environmental Geologist, he can be found aboard his beloved bicycle cruising along Alligator Bayou Road near Prarieville, Louisiana, concocting ales in his home brewery, or working on his next novel.
