Gizmology & Technomancy

I've just provided a few, very minor, formatting comments to JayHenge Publishing for my story 'Inktomi and the Skyship', included in their latest anthology, The Apparatus Almanac: Gizmology & Technomancy.

I was a day late with my notes but, turns out, the deadline for comments was the day after the publication date. Things move so fast nowadays, don't they?

And to think, had they had time to take my points on board, it could have been so much... no, scrub that; knowing what JayHenge turn out, it's probably already as good as it gets.

My Thoughts are with You. Your Thoughts are with the Authorities for Calibration Against Societal Norms

Award-nominated science fiction and slipstream author Robert Bagnall’s second anthology of twenty-four stories, variously bleak, funny, bleakly funny or – very occasionally – optimistic.

  

2084 - The Meschera Bandwidth

2084. The world remains at war.

In the Eurasian desert, twenty-year old Adnan emerges from a coma with memories of a strictly ordered city of steel and glass, and a woman he loved.

The city is the Dome, and the woman... is Adnan's secret to keep.

Adnan learns what the Dome is, and what his role really was within it. He learns why everybody fears the Sickness more than the troopers. And he learns why he is the only one who can stop the war.

Persuaded to re-enter the Dome to implant a virus that will bring the war machine to its knees, the resistance think that Adnan is returning to free the many - but really he wants to free the one.
