Blue lightning, red clouds, searing heat and a dwindling water supply: just a typical day on Spiral.
Jessa watches the monitors daily, waiting for the return of the ice ship. Her family died in the last water rationing crisis--and she longs for good news to share with the colony this time.
The ice ship's mission lasts six more months. But of course, Jessa looks anyway--just in case.
The stand-alone sequel to Brooks' short story Seventy, for everyone who wants to believe in hope.
1400 words / Life On Other Planets (Science Fiction)
Welcome to Inklets, a series of short (and sometimes short-short) stories ranging from sci-fi to fantasy to lingering just on the edge of normal. One thing's for sure: you won't look at the world the same way again.
