Or the abandoned Nazi base…Martin the Dictator - by Jason Palmer. 150 million refugees from an intergalactic war suddenly appeared in the skies above Earth. Which nation would be willing to take them in?Broken Dolls - by Philip L. Tite. She was the youngest commander in over a decade. Then the accident happened, and now all she can see is the broken pieces of her comrades…All Elves are Stupid - by Jeromy Henry. Driving around the city naked and singing Patsy Cline songs in drag at the skinhead bar weren't enough for Gloria's Dad. He was, after all, an elf. And you had to complete three quests to win a maiden. Even if the quests re stupid. And involve trolls… and magic swords… and nose hair?The Sideways Machine - by Richard Zwicker. Time machines are supposed to go backwards and forwards, right? When Christian's suddenly takes a lurch to the side, how many timelines will he tangle?And a special column by Galley Table Stowaway - Doc Coleman on Succeeding Through Failure. Enjoy!
