Men and Machines

A new breed of ship’s doctor walks into a crisis in a far-flung space station. A predatory ship of legend stalks an Earth-bound transport. A damaged corporate soldier battles hell on an alien planet – and in his head. A salvage crew goes hunting for profits and ends up in a desperate race for their lives – and everyone else’s.

Combining technical curiosity and classic storytelling, Charlie Nash’s first collection celebrates the foundations of space opera and military SF through new reflections, including “Dellinger”, shortlisted for the Aurealis Award for Best Science Fiction Short Story.
