Deep space. It holds a special allure for science fiction authors and readers alike because of its immense possibilities. As far back as HG Wells, the allure of what lies beyond our planet, beyond our solar system, has roused the mind with glorious tales of asteroid mining and interstellar empires. Of planetary exploration and lost colonies. From the golden age of pulp magazines to contemporary motion pictures and streaming services, the call of the beyond has seduced the imaginations of the masses.
In Far Futures Three, some of the talented and rising authors in science fiction from the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, and Australia, have offered their diverse visions of life in deep space. Stories of broken generations ships and malfunctioning holograms. AI enhanced humans fleeing the solar system. Alien abductees taken light-years away. A NASA spacecraft highjacked in a perilous first contact scenario. Pirates and scavengers and more.
These stories are all different, yet all answer the same fundamental question: "What... or who is out there?"
