I forgot to post this last Friday on its launch, so here it is today, a spotlight on the sci-fi horror collection, In Those Fading Stars by Andrew Najberg. Enjoy.
In Those Fading Stars
A father whose son fades away every day unless he passes the boy a bit of his own life.
Three robots holding a séance.
A man who suffers the effects of an intergalactic portal opening in his stomach.
These stories exist at the intersection of science fiction, horror, and magic and explore both our humanity in the face of the weird as well as our most ordinary and fundamental relationships.
Whether attempting to voyage to a distant star on a generational craft whose destination is so far no living passengers will reach it or whether a daughter’s new friend is teaching her to break the trendiest of dimensional boundaries, the stories press humanity against the macro and the micro scales of the universe—but every one of them shines a light on a little piece of our souls at the core.
