    About this ebook

    In each of these 32 tales a different Dark Future appears, whether it be for a human, a robot or an alien lifeform.
    You will travel far in this book; From the plague ravaged London of the present day then into the future of the enslaved mercenaries of the Krell Empire of the Green Sun. You will also meet Sentient Artificial Lifeforms, who have more humanity than their creators and some accidental alien visitors to Earth who stay for the beer and become devoted to Elvis.
    You will experience the abject fear of dealing with deadly Alien Artifacts brought back to Earth but never understood. You will travel across The Great Darkness of space that is not actually empty and is littered with the bodies of the unlucky, whilst reading of love lost during Interstellar war and then assuaged by bloody revenge.
