Echo of Creation
This
collection of short stories will lead you through environments both familiar
and yet unexplored by man, each with situations as startling fresh as the last.
In stories Stinger and Desert Star, our known desert landscape
takes on an eerie dimension when everyday folk are confronted by
not-your-everyday alien intrusions, such as meteorites that embed memories of
ancient cultures into human brains, and a hovering tree-like craft that sucks glowing
scorpions dry in the desert night. Other
tales are set in the future, such as Echo
of Creation, in which desperate parents living at the edge-of-time send off
their unmet children into a better timeline - the past - in which their futures
are dictated via instructional data packets. Fears and uncertainty in the act
of spontaneous space flight emerge in stories New Moons and The Psione
Program.
These
tales leave one with the insights that beings from other realms might be just
as curious to communicate with the unfamiliar as we are, and that even the most
meticulous planning proves ever fragile against the mysterious factors of space
and time.
