Produktbeschreibung

The Right to Bear Arms - A physics professor is so distraught at his son's death by a mentally deranged man carrying an automatic weapon, that he devises an incredible plan that he hopes will change history forever. Terran Spies On An Alien Planet - A government official on a planet currently at war with earth, finds two supposed spies at a bar and suspects they are Terran agents. They are pretty 'dense' and after grilling them for a period of time, he follows up on a couple of tips they give him and their supposedly real reason for being on the planet. However, things change suddenly for the official and his planet as the situation heats up. Raymond The Automatic House In a post-apocalyptic future, a man finds a intact automatic house in the woods. Radiation Can Really Mess Things Up, is a classic Sci-Fi story about what happens when you aren't monitoring the site of a nuclear disaster like Chernobyl, quite closely enough. The Brand New & Instant Pop-Up Mall - A large mall springs up seemingly overnight in place of an apple orchard and suddenly; the number of stores inside intrigues the townspeople. Most advertise for Help Wanted and several of the locals apply. The startling thing is that that all of the shopkeepers seem to know about the applicants, even before they open their mouths. This is a classic Sci-Fi story suitable for any age, in the vein of the Old Masters of Sci-Fi. Duplicates is a story set in the near future and it's about a female police detective investigating a crime. Someone pushed an employee of a high tech company off a balcony and she wonders what it has to do with a computer chip found clutched tightly in a death grip in the dead man's hand. She notices someone watching the scene and right after that, finds another chip--in much better condition than the first. Is the man in the crowd a secret admirer or the perpetrator? She soon gets deeper into the case and things start to unravel--not always in a good direction, either. Bodyguards To The New Empress - In a post apocalyptic future, earth has reverted to a low-tech system of kingdoms and female leadership, held together by an empress. One couple emerges, Darnel and his fierce wife Betty, who are called upon by the empress to escort her to the Mountain Of The Ancients to coronate a new empress who will take over the reins of power. Empathy A man with psychic and empathetic powers decides that the fragile and topsy-turvy state of the union is about to collapse, so he devises a plan to fix it. This is a thought provoking, near future science fiction short story perfect for an active political year. Notes From Heaven: An innovative and romantic thriller novella set in the near future, and one which explores the 'what ifs' of cloning human beings; and ones that were incredible and unique geniuses when they first lived on the earth.

Autorenporträt

I was born in England, but have lived in Southern California for many years. I m now retired and live in the Pacific NW in a little seaside city amongst the giant redwoods and wonderful harbor, almost at the Oregon border. My husband and I have one cat, called Midnight and she is featured in two of my latest Sci-Fi short stories. I love Science Fiction, animals, and trying to help others. I publish under Doreen Milstead as well as my own name. My photo was taken right before the coronation of QE II in the UK.
