The Childern's Crusade

(2013)
A Story by

 
 
Ari is just a little boy. He lives in Baghdad. His uncle uses him to deliver bombs to terrorist targets.

Abraham is just a little boy. He lives in Israel now. His parents, UN peace workers, were captured and butchered by terrorists before his eyes.

Suleima is just a little girl. She lives in the Darfur region of Sudan. Her entire family was killed in the violence there.

But these three children, worlds apart, share a special connection -- and a special power. They are tired of wars and violence, and finally they are ready to do something about it.

From the imagination of Robin Wayne Bailey, novelist, short story writer and poet, and a former president of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America, comes this powerful novelette. Originally appearing in the Daw Books anthology, HEROES IN TRAINING, and reprinted in Bailey's collection, TURN LEFT TO TOMORROW, "The Children's Crusade" was a 2008 Nebula Award nominee for Best Novelette. Skyrider Press is honored to republish it now.
