THE 2018 ADVENTURE SF BUNDLE

A Bundle of Adventure in Your Science Fiction

As the summer ends, you have just enough time to dive into a universe of exciting science fiction. I've curated a new StoryBundle of a dozen adventure SF books which only runs for three weeks from August 29 through September 19.

This bundle leads off with my newly released collection, Selected Stories: Science Fiction Volume 1, more than 130,000 words of my best stories, twenty tales including my very first published piece of fiction, "Memorial," when I was 12. There's also the Fiction River anthology Superpowers edited by Rebecca Moesta, and the seminal new anthology Bridge Across the Stars, edited by Rhett Bruno.

The nine novels in this bundle range from wild adventure SF (Nobless Oblige by Uri Kurlianchik, Shadow of Ruin Quincy J. Allen featuring Colt the Outlander from Heavy Metal magazine, created by the Aradio Brothers, and Steampunk Banditos, the new Felix Gomez novel by Mario Acevedo), to edgy thought-provoking science fiction (Albatross by R.A. MacAvoy and Nancy L. Palmer and Crecheling by D.J. Butler), disaster black-hole thriller Singularity by Bill deSmedt, and solid, compelling science fiction The Soul Eater by Mike Resnick, The Application of Hope by Kristine Kathryn Rusch, and Dry Creek Crossing by Dean Wesley Smith.

With StoryBundle, you name your own price, minimum of $5 for the base level of five titles, or $15 minimum for the full baker's dozen. A portion of the proceeds goes to support my favorite non-profit, the Challenger Learning Center for Space Science Education, and the rest of the proceeds goes to support the authors and indie publishers.
