Foreword – Issue 2 Introduction | Read now

Alex Shvartsman

It has been an eventful few months since we launched the inaugural issue. Months filled with the good, the somewhat frustrating, and the tragic. As the first issue launched, we learned that one of our contributors, Walter Dinjos, passed away mere days earlier....

Jaap Boekestein, Tais Teng

Hanneke was deeply, madly in love, and she knew it wouldn’t last. Only eight more months, twelve at most. She blinked her magnification on and zoomed in on her partner. Sun-burned, sea-weathered, handsome Gerben, her Gerben was strolling down the tideline, crows taking to the air at every step, cawing their protest....

The Roost of Ash and Fire Fiction | Read now

David Walton

Easy Prey tried to concentrate, but the music made it hard. The sweet-smelling love songs his coworkers preferred left an acid taste in the back of his throat. He would have used a portable facemask for his own music—Prey liked his songs pungent, with a little more rhythmic savagery in them—but Sharp Salt, his boss, had strictly forbade personal music organisms....

The Lord of Rivers Fiction | Read now

Wanxiang Fengnian

It fixed its gaze on the world below. The flood pressed into the riverbed. The spray webbed within the lightning. The pealing thunder gave premature birth to steam. It did not control any of these things; it did not possess a single thing in the world....

No Body Enough Fiction | Read now

Dantzel Cherry

“Full house,” I said. I smiled, but the tension of the moment strained across all three of my avatars. My primary avv—the one with the best poker face and thus the one handling the cards—faced Marcy’s primary and studiously ignored every other body in the room....

Natalia Theodoridou

The job of the Adam is to stand astride the kill gate, waiting for the animal to be driven past. As the cow passes underneath the Adam’s legs, the Adam hits it between the eyes with its right arm, which is a sledgehammer....

Everyone else in the lunar base could continue to fluster and fuss over the lack of aeroships from Earth, but I needed to find Mister White Whiskers forthwith. “Where have you gotten yourself to, you silly thing?” My brittle, high voice echoed within the narrow duct....

The Zest for Life Fiction | Read now

N. R. M. Roshak

Humanity had been hoping for some transformative, revolutionary technology, but what the aliens left us was a salad dressing recipe. It used some weird feedstocks, but what came out of the fab looked, smelled, and tasted a lot like Kraft Zesty Italian....

The Token Fiction | Read now

Mike Resnick

Songs and wartime seem to go hand-in-glove. There are songs urging our troops to vanquish the enemy, songs urging our forces to decimate anyone who stands in their way, songs urging them to act in unison for a common cause. And there are some gentler songs, too....

To Save a Human Fiction | Read now

Svyatoslav Loginov

The ranger was beautiful. Try as I might, I couldn’t reach even to the knee of his exoskeleton. The armor on his chest shone with the blue tinge of tempered steel, although the material wasn’t actually metal but something far stronger....

About Tais Teng

Tais Teng (1952) is a Dutch SF writer, illustrator, poet and sculptor. Saddled with the quite unpronounceable name of Thijs van Ebbenhorst Tengbergen he shortened that to Tais Teng to leave room for exploding spaceships or clever steampunk ladies on the covers of his novels. In his own language he has written about everything from radio-plays to hefty fantasy trilogies. To date he sold some thirty-five stories in the English language and two children’s books, The Emerald Boy and When the Night-gaunt Knows Your Name. The SF novel Phaedra: Alastor 824, set in the universe of Jack Vance, will be published in 2019 by Spatterlight Press. As a sculptor his most heart-felt wish is a Star Wars laser cannon to carve mountains or one of the lesser Jupiter moons. Tais Teng is, with Jaap Boekestein, one of the founders of ziltpunk: optimistic climate fiction set in a decidedly Dutch future, with mile-high dykes, hurricane-herders and mangrove islands in front of the coast. His website is taisteng.atspace.com.

Cool story. I loved the tactile details woven into the story, making the setting seem real. Cool world. Loved Tais Teng's characters and conflict. Great narration too. Wulf's deep voice pulled me right into the story and I was right there with the two life-long lovebirds. I will definitely be tuning in to the next episode :)
