β¦ Synopsis
Imagine seeing a star explode before your very eyes. Consider the possibilities of having robots in your house fulfilling your every desire. Plan a trip to ancient Rome to dine with Caesar. Travel the galaxy delivering precious goods. But never forget that your cargo is illegal, robots could possess a soul, and the consequences of time travel could be deadly. Somewhere, just beyond the horizon, where the edge of the world disappears into darkness and possibility, exist the worlds inhabited by the stories of Horizon's Edge. There are worlds filled with black holes, robot assassins, savage aliens, forbidden love, and β just possibly β the power to bring about the end of the Universe. But there are also worlds as familiar as our own backyards, which may be the scariest of all. Realms of dark imagination, they are also, remarkably, worlds of hopes and dreams. Blending aspects of traditional science fiction and modern thought, author Mark Guinane finds β somewhere deep in space, or possibly just around the corner β an intriguing middle ground between Isaac Asimov and Philip K. Dick. Horizon's Edge is a collection of stories that will take you to the edge of the Universe and beyond.
