Analog Science Fiction and Fact, November 2010 [Kindle Compatible (MOBI)]
by Dell Magazine Authors
|
|
  Our November issue features something a bit unusual: "Phantom Sense," a powerful novella by Richard A. Lovett and Mark Niemann-Ross, and a companion science fact article by the same authors about the real science and technology at the core of the story. Science fiction has often explored the consequences of people having capabilities far beyond those of most of us, but what if those abilities can be conferred by technology--and that technology is only available to a few? "Phantom Sense" will put... more info>> (Published: 2010)

Our October issue again includes a variety of human-alien contact stories. John G. Hemry's lead novella, with the deceptively simple title "The Rift," deals with two different kinds of alienness: one within a species, and one between ours and another that has started behaving in a way startlingly (and lethally) different from what human colonists have come to expect. The question, of course, is why, and what can be done about it. The answer requires understanding each side from its own point of ... more info>> (Published: 2010)

Tempestuous weather is forecast for our September issue. Our first stop is Venus, where Hugo and Nebula Award winner and NASA scientist Geoffrey A. Landis escorts us on a wild ride full of pirates, intrigue, and the stunning scenery of the second planet's upper atmosphere and introduces us to "The Sultan of the Clouds." The roiling skyscapes in this novella are gloriously captured by Jeroen Advocaat's dramatic cover art. If the clouds were Terran and the air-borne kayak was a two-seater biplane,... more info>> (Published: 2010)

The stories in this month's issue are equally divided between s eries installments and stand-alones. Readers and publishers alike enjoy series characters, but they present writers with particular challenges. Each story must be self-contained and the characters reintroduced for the sake of the first time reader, while series fans want to enjoy some character development as well as the pleasure of seeing a familiar sleuth solve new problems in his or her inimitable way.
Stand-alones are less cons... more info>> (Published: 2010)

Three big novelettes form the centerpiece of our August issue, perfect for the beach or poolside, (and the cabana, if you don't care for the sun). The first features the return of recent Asimov's discovery Gregory Norman Bossert and his "Slow Boat"--the boat here is on its leisurely way to Mars containing a most unwilling passenger, a young woman threatened with interplanetary exile for her hackerly ways. Can she, with little but her own wits, turn the tides on her mysterious captors? Next, in "... more info>> (Published: 2010)

Levine's "Pupa," as its name suggests, shows a highly charged incident in international politics from the viewpoint of someone too young--and otherwise immature--to participate in it in a conventional way, but uniquely placed to play a pivotal role. Stories told from an alien viewpoint are one of the hardest kinds to pull off, but I think you'll find this an outstanding and... more info>> (Published: 2010)

In "A History of Terraforming" Reed examines the multi-multi-generational journey of some very long-lived humans and their valiant (and sometimes catastophic and nefarious) schemes to make our Solar System a more habitable place. Along the way, we follow an earnest scientist, Simon, on his journey through some of the most inhospitable envir... more info>> (Published: 2010)

Bob Eggleton's cover heralds "Doctor Alien's Five Empty Boxes," a new novella by Rajnar Vajra about the psychiatrist (introduced last year) who has to treat troubled extraterrestrials--without knowing what they consider "normal." In this one he has an added challenge, related to the venerable observation that things are seldom what they seem. . . .

In 18th-century England, bitter rivalries turn an idyllic garden party deadly (in "Parson Pennywick in Arcadia" by Amy Myers); modern-day P.I. Joe Silvermann poles past the site of an old crime that's haunting his guilt-wracked client (in Mick Herron's "Mirror Images"); and an arrogant sportswriter unwisely chooses to follow his baser instincts ... more info>> (Published: 2010)

What do you do if you’re a long way into a quest so big, for a goal based on evidence so tenuous, that you don’t even know whether the agencies supporting you still really do? And what if you then find that what you were looking for is not what you thought it was, but something even stranger? Then your response can’t be what you thought it would be. . . .
