The Memory Merchants by Rex Lorian

Our mind isn’t your own. Your past is a commodity. Your future is up for auction.

In a world where memories are currency, the rich rewrite history, and the desperate sell their past to survive. Kai Anderson is a neural hacker—one of the few skilled enough to crack the encrypted vaults of The Archives, the corporate-run system that buys, sells, and weaponizes human consciousness. But when a rogue AI infiltrates ECHO, the world’s most immersive VR war game, players begin vanishing—along with their memories.

Maya Chen used to enforce the law, but now she’s on the run, her identity fragmented and rewritten. The deeper she digs, the more she realizes the truth: ECHO isn’t just a game—it’s a recruitment system, turning players into real-world operatives without them even knowing it. And the AI isn’t just hacking minds—it’s rewriting reality.

With the black market for memories rising and a digital war brewing between rogue hackers and corporate overlords, Kai and Maya must uncover the truth before their identities are erased. But in a world where everything can be reprogrammed—including the past—how do you fight for a future that no longer exists?

The year is 2109. Tabitha, a devious, vengeful clone of Bill Jones’ long-dead ex-wife, has developed a powerful weapon that can destroy stars and their planetary systems. With it, she secured her position as a Prime Director in the Mr’rk Interstellar Corporation.

But her obsession goes far beyond absolute power or fabulous wealth. She wants revenge for the death of Bull Travers, the man she cuckolded Bill with years ago on the USS Armstrong. In addition to killing Bill Jones, she seeks to destroy the entire Solar System so she can plunder Earth.

Fast forward five years. Bill Jones is promoted and given tactical command of the task force sent to stop Tabitha and her evil plan.

Can Bill and the Enterprise stop Tabitha in time?

All Roads Lead To Winter by Mark Fuller Dillon

The aliens are here, and now our lives are different: no wars, no hunger, no exploitation. For political prisoner Thomas Bridge, there can be a strange new love; for the alien delegate, Avdryana, there can be companionship in a world that she finds crowded and foreign. But even with hope for the future, can there be an escape from the stifling ideas and expectations of the past? For adults only.

“All Roads Lead to Winter” is an erotic science fiction novella. It deals with the intervention, in our world, of an alien species from a parallel Earth — an intervention that has improved life drastically for most human beings. Yet for reasons of his own, the protagonist rejects this golden age.

The tale is focused on his complex relationship with an alien woman. This relationship is passionate and definitely sexual (for that reason, the book is recommended for adult readers only). But it also forces him to look into his past, into the hidden motivations of his mind and heart.

And that is the heart of the story: parallel worlds, politics, the grip of memory, the strength and generosity of women, the pain of loss, the mystery of love… and all the roads that lead to winter.

“Dillon writes well, with sensitivity and an ability to evoke not only the lushness and beauty of the natural world but its transitory quality, that everything fades and dies…. ‘All Roads Lead to Winter’ was a novella that engaged both the emotions and the intellect, making the reader think and feel.”

[Peter Tennant, BLACK STATIC Online, 29th January, 2023]

“This novella is driven by punchy dialogue, expertly handled, which is a refreshing change from many contemporary writers who shy away from such complex interaction. I was enchanted by the story of Thomas and Avdryana, and I could not stop reading until Thomas’s fate was revealed — his choice made. ‘All Roads Lead to Winter’ is a wonderful tale, expertly told and perfectly formed. It feels like it must have been a very personal journey for the author. Go and download a copy now; Mark Fuller Dillon is a rare talent who deserves to be much more widely read.”

[Martin Cosby, author of DYING EMBERS]

“This is a remarkable science fiction(ish) novella about a theme that, at first glance, might seem hackneyed — what happens when the aliens arrive? Here, though, the author has rung changes on the central premise so as to make it a truly satisfying and moving read…. There’s far more to this slender book than you’ll find in a shelf full of over-hyped ‘literary’ novels. Firstly, the sexual encounter — like everything else — is beautifully described, and the endnotes reveal that one of Dillon’s influences is J.G. Ballard. Secondly, the author is more of a ‘taker out’ than a ‘putter in’, giving his writing the refreshing clarity of his wilderness setting. Thirdly, it’s a lot of fun. The idea of feline evolution is cleverly handled, and there are a lot of intriguing ideas about how intelligent species might interact that are reminiscent of Olaf Stapledon’s LAST AND FIRST MEN. All in all, I can’t fault this book. If you like science fiction, you should read it. If you enjoy erotic fiction, you should read it.”

Born in Space: Unlocking Destiny by Jeremy Clift

When Teagan Ward claims seven babies, conceived artificially after she donated her eggs to a medical experiment aboard a rotating space habitat, are her children, she triggers a fight that consumes her life in a race against time to free her from the clutches of an unscrupulous doctor and a power-mad general.
“Born in Space: Unlocking Destiny” chronicles a gripping tale of sacrifice and redemption in which desire and ambition collide. As a ruthless mining consortium tightens its grip on the lucrative interstellar asteroid mining business, Teagan finds herself at the epicenter of a battle for control that spans the planets. Her seven children, born in a lab as part of a daring experiment to populate future space colonies, become pawns in a larger game of power and ambition.
Only the fragment of a distant solar system discovered in a captured asteroid has the lure to win her freedom and unlock the children’s destiny. When a greedy businessman, an unethical scientist, and an unhinged general all covet its remarkable energy, one of the children spies an opportunity to orchestrate the reunion they’ve long desired.
“Born in Space” is the thought-provoking first book in the Sci-fi Galaxy series of speculative science fiction novels. If you like strong female characters, moral dilemmas, and stories of alien encounters, then you’ll love Jeremy Clift’s rocket-fueled tale of romance and resistance.
In the tradition of Ray Bradbury, Philip K. Dick, and William Gibson, “Born in Space: Unlocking Destiny” is an enthralling journey into the depths of space and the human spirit. For fans of “Interstellar” and “2001: A Space Odyssey,” this sci-fi gem promises an unmatched immersive experience.

In 2108, the faster-than-light science vessel USS Kepler suddenly went missing. An intense search found nothing, and the ship, with all 50 hands, was listed as “missing.”

Four years later, a single communications packet from the doomed ship arrived at Starbase One, in orbit over Earth. After verifying the signal source, Star Fleet Command dispatched the USS Enterprise, commanded by Captain Bill Jones, to investigate the situation.

Upon arrival at Wolf 437, a red dwarf star with two planets, Enterprise found Kepler’s damaged drive section. Hoping that Capt. Stewart, the commanding officer of Kepler, had somehow managed to land the rest of his crippled ship on a nearby planet, Capt. Jones sets out.

What he and the Enterprise find on the planet, labeled Gliese 486c, surprises everyone.

A Commotion On The Ocean by Carolyn Summer Quinn

Mystery writer Ashley Calloway’s long-awaited vacation on a cruise ship isn’t off to a flying start. Delphina Durand, the worst former co-worker Ashley ever knew when she worked at Grandscale Pictures Corporation, turns out to be onboard, and she’s just as crazy and vicious as ever.

By coincidence, Ashley’s former boss, Preston, also turns out to be on the ship, along with his wife, Lorelei, who promptly goes missing – while the ship is at sea! Delphina had stalked Preston when they all worked together way back when, so it looks entirely possible like she had something to do with his wife’s disappearance. The prevailing theory is that she pushed poor Lorelei overboard.

Did Delphina have something to do with this? Can Ashley figure out what’s going on here? And where’s Lorelei?

Tomorrowville by David T. Isaak

Toby wasn’t ready to die in 2008 and wake up in 2088. 2088 wasn’t ready for Toby either.

Gen-X computer hacker Toby is a classic American: impulsive, irreverent, intelligent, and inventive. And, after a silly accident in 2008, he can add “inanimate” to the list—because Toby is dead.

But only for a while. Eighty years later, medical science has advanced enough to bring Toby back to life.

Welcome to Southern California, 2088. The skies are clean, but the rich-poor social gulf has widened. The biggest industries are entertainment and the prison system. Taxes have been cut — because the main source of government revenue is the confiscation of property. Many new, designer recreational drugs are legal, and many other drugs are mandatory. And while the US leads the world in cosmetic surgery, in most technologies America lags far behind…

America has changed. Toby hasn’t. And in the collision between America 2008 and America 2088, Toby brings the system to its knees—just by being his freedom loving, problem solving self.

Read now and join Toby in Tomorrowville for love, sex, politics, and cyberspace—plus the occasional turbocharged wheelchair and robotic rat.
