April Round-up of Scifi Books

This month I thought I'd focus on short story collections and anthologies. The short story is a classic of scifi, focussing on one specific idea or innovation and pushing it to see where it goes.

And here are the books you want...

From the multi-award-winning author of the First Contact Series, Milijun, Saving Paludis, and Silently in the Night comes a spellbinding collection of short stories that promises hours of captivating entertainment.
Experience tales ranging from a stranded alien comedian to the darkest corners of the human mind; from breathtaking galactic adventures to hidden extraterrestrial schemes on Earth. Each story is crafted to keep you guessing and enthralled at every turn.

Would you risk gambling with your life to discover what comes after death? Would you delete your memories if it erased your anxiety? Paradise 25 is a collection of nine gripping sci fi tales that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

From a young couple struggling to look after their baby to a new captain's reluctance to take command of her ship, and from a sun-addled stranger's appearance in town to the emergence of a sentient AI, the twelve tales presented here explore the central theme of an arrival by someone or something new.There's even an alien puppy.
The hunt is on.

The Uncertainty Principle is a collection of science-fiction short stories and a novelette set in the present and near future. It includes a hard-boiled detective story, a dystopian thriller, an eco-fiction mystery, a tabloid-style satire about human cloning, some action-adventure military SF, and a noirish cyberpunk tale.

Gathered together for the first time are seven strange stories of the future from the wondrous imagination of Philip E. High.

From Marta Randall, comes thirteen previously uncollected stories spanning the author’s career.

This collection highlights the imaginative brilliance of Ray Bradbury, one of the most influential voices in science fiction. Spanning over 15 stories, the anthology offers a window into Bradbury’s unique ability to blend futuristic ideas with profound human emotions.

Interstellar journeys. Epic battles. Artificial Intelligence's longing for meaning. Life as we know it, ending...
Sci-Fi Bridge is thrilled to present its second collection from bestselling authors and newly emerging writers. These stories span the near and far future. They transport you to worlds unknown. They examine today's fears amid tomorrow's technologies. From the far corners of the galaxy to the inner reaches of the human heart, the exciting stories in At the Helm will thrill, inspire, and make you wonder--do humans have what it takes to build a better future? Or are we doomed by our own failings?
