Cover Reveal for Space Jockey


In the future, we will need to travel. We will need to fight. We will need to deliver food to the famished. We will need to go to other planets in tacky tourist shirts and take pictures with our embedded borg eyes. We will need to do all these important things in spaceships. And those spaceships will need pilots. Not just any pilots, either, but the best of the best.

Space jockeys!

Or maybe not. In which case, the alternative might be just as interesting.

These tales aren't really about spaceships, but about people: The starship pilots, space navy aces, and explorers of the future. Where they go, how they get there, and what price they pay.

As you can see, we have some AWESOME contributors. About half the stories have been printed before (including two classics that I bet you haven't read, but totally should). Half the stories are brand new.

I'm thrilled, to say the least, to have been honored by some top-selling authors with their stories. I'm equally proud to say this will be the first publication for a couple of these authors... but I doubt it will be the last.

I wanted to feature a mix of established and up-and-coming authors, because I think the short story format is still hugely important in the field of science fiction.

In the upcoming weeks, look for some interviews with the contributing authors, excerpts from their other published works, and teasers from the anthology.

Also, if you want to review this anthology (free copy!) or buy it for just $0.99 as soon as it comes out (that price will go up the next day!) drop me a note ... tara @ taramayastales (dot) com ... or sign up Tara's Tribe to receive the monthly newsletter, where it will be announced first.
