The Future Embodied - An anthology of speculative stories exploring
how science and technology might change our bodies and what it
means to be human. Imagine what our ancestors a mere hundred years
ago would have thought of the modern world. Think of the medical
marvels we experience on a daily basis that would have seemed
impossible. Recent medical advances have dramatically extended the
human life-span to unthinkable lengths. Science has changed how we
live in this world. Technology has allowed humanity to dramatically
alter our environment, how we communicate, and how we experience
life. Imagine now what our descendants might experience. What new
trials or tribulations will the future of humanity suffer, or
overcome? The final frontier won't be out in space but inside our
own bodies. Experience the future as imagined via nineteen powerful
voices envisioning what we might become. Including stories from:
William F. Nolan, David Gerrold, Ree Soesbee, Jennifer Brozek,
Katrina Nicholson, Nghi Vo, Jennifer R. Povey, Sarah Pinsker,
Thomas Brennan, Miles Britton, Megan Lee Beals, Lauren C. Teffeau,
Shane Robinson, John Skylar, Preston Dennett, Alexandra Grunberg,
Wayne Helge, and Holly Schofield.
An empty stretch of highway. A freak electrical storm. A bus full
of strangers. And a mysterious bus driver with a rather peculiar
agenda. America the Horrific: An Anthology of Horror presents
eleven tales of terror in the tradition of classic storytelling.
When a freak storm strands a bus on a deserted stretch of highway,
the passengers find themselves suddenly "disconnected" from the
world. To pass the time, the driver encourages each passenger share
something about their hometown ... but only if it is something
scary. The passengers soon learn that, despite their differences,
they do share one thing in common: their shared world is a very
scary place.
