This might be a short story, but it was packed from the word go!

Yes, of course I want more...when do I not, but unlike a lot of other shorts, this one didn't leave me with an unsatisfied feeling. It was very well written, edge of the seat kind of story telling that isn't easy to find.

Of course I wouldn't say no to a continuation of this story though... *bats eyelashes* ( )

A wild ride in more than one sense, this story might have confounded and confused me (time travel tends to do that), but it also amazed me. The world of slipstream travel comes alive in this story, and the characters are interesting and quirky. By the time you add in a grossly misbehaving computer personality, you've got the ingredients for one wild ride.

Tom is captain of a ship that has had is share of trouble. Between a volatile relationship with his copilot, Briak, and his need to stay away from the overly regulative PADCom authority, he is shocked to discover some truly strange slipstream effects that interfere with the sooth running of the ship. He is devastated when a freak accident kills Briak, but that is only the beginning of his real problems. In the frantic attempts to get his lover back, and willing to risk everything, even totally illegal time travel, he encounters some strange phenomena and even stranger people.

If you like sci-fi stories with a few mind-bending twists, if the idea of time travel and even time renegades doesn’t scare you, and if a wild adventure is what you are looking for, you will probably like this book.

73 pages. Sci-fi at it's best in this fast paced novella. Captain Tom is still mourning the loss of his co-pilot and lover to a slip-stream accident some weeks ago when he begins to suspect that Briak is still with him in some way on the ship and is trying to send him signs of his presence.

This felt like a perfect prequel to a longer story and I certainly hope that is the case. Great read! ( )
