About the book

Me neither. It’s simple celestial mechanics.

Will future space travelers look around in awe that each ship is traveling above the same sky, above the same atmosphere of their native planet?

Probably not. But right now, looking up from our gravity well, that sounds kind of cool.

A five-story collection about normal worlds different from our own. Worlds with a twist. People staring down at the same sky with no sense of how amazing it would be from our point of view.

Sometimes fun, sometimes freaky, five stories connected by unusual twists. Includes the short stories: Follow the Pink Rabbit · Voice of the Hero · Gremm Initiate · Jamison’s Escape · Two Dog Night
