Remain Alert: Science Fiction Stories (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798201332945)

Lesson #1 in intergalactic mixology: VIPs take it floated, not stirred.

Explore the farthest reaches of the galaxy in Kate Sheeran Swed's newest collection of science fiction stories.

• In "Chosen," an intergenerational spaceship returns to Earth after disaster strikes;
• in "Ugly Earthling," an ambitious chef attempts to fry her way across the universe;
• and in "It's All Fun and Games Until Someone Usurps the Galaxy," a Supreme Galactic Emperor takes on an ambitious building project under dubious circumstances.

Absurdity and tragedy commingle in tales where space travel is run-of-the-mill, time can be recovered, and second chances hold the key to survival.
