Tiny Time Machine
A new short novel from Nebula Award nominee John E Stith, from Amazing Stories, with illustrations by Nikolett Timar.

When Meg breaks into a paint company to expose their practices, she runs into Josh, another loner out to save the world. When ...
Deco Punk: The Spirit of the Age
Are you ready for the next wave of Steampunk? Then it's time for something that captures the spirit of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, an era of ebullient progress in the arts, literature, science, and technology. Call it Deco Punk, and let's rock with the bootleg Twenties and roll with the grim Thirties. It was a time of heady optimism, and-fittingly-the era when modern science fiction was born.
Visions of Tomorrow
Gathers science fiction stories that accurately predicted future developments, including "The Land Iron Clads" by H.G. Wells, which foresaw tank warfare in 1903, and a tale that so closely depicted the atomic bomb in 1944 it worried the FBI.
No Police = Know Future
What Does a Future Without Police Look Like? In 2020, protesting citizens issued the cry to “defund the police.” But what does that mean? We challenged science fiction authors the world over to give us their vision of a world without police and fair systems of justice. In this collection you’ll find eleven stories showing alternate forms of law enforcement and criminal justice spread across near future, alternate realities and different worlds. Explore places where everyone in the community takes a part to bring justice to killers and citizens step into the role of Mr. Rogers to be good neighbors and resolve disputes. Find worlds where the errant are helped to redemption and a future where a modern angst-ridden cop’s mind is blown. This anthology shows you what “defund the police” can look like. We invite you to take a journey into social landscapes you may not have thought possible.
