Short Story

Bombardment in Reverse


Jamie Todd Rubin wrote about this story as part of his Vacation in the Golden Age, and I got a pdf copy on Thanksgiving Day in 2012. The story tells of two alien nations at war—a somewhat amateurish was by Martian or Terrestrial standards, but one in which time-traveling weapons target where the enemy was in the past.
The Nyandrians are attacking Strofander with shells which traverse not only space, but time as well.

Short Story

Short-Circuited Probability


Our hero, Mark Livingston, finds a dead human body that is older than the human race—but still quite clearly his own body along with a highly evolved traveling companion.
This is a story of something that did—or didn’t—happen. Question is, can it be properly said that it did or did not?
