Got this as an adorable tiny book. Very good variety in the stories, best enjoyed if you have done a little bike maintenance and know the names of things.

Read this for a book club on cycling. I am not a fan of science fiction so found these stories to all be rather odd and not generally of interest to me, but they were short (some very short!) and this book was small so I got through it. I decided this publisher has other books I’d love, this just wasn’t the one for me, so I’m glad to have read this book so I could learn more about the publisher.

Picked this one up at my local indie. Favorite stories were Bipedal by Nicky Drayden, Nova’s Cycles by Aaron M. Wilson, The Revelation of Megulon-5, and The Breathing Engine by Matthew Lambert!

More of a 3.75-4. Beautifully compiled and a great range of voices. I didn't think I was much of a sci-fy person but this zine has me second-guessing that assumption. Locally published in Portland is a cool perk!

The moon was a bust.

You see the grinning maw and you think your little life is going to change. You think that the future is before you, and the past is behind you, but it isn’t. You’re not rolling forward. You’re there already, and you’re already long gone.
