About the author

Justin B. Berman has seen enough of the world to know how fragile hope can be, and he keeps holding onto it anyway. His stories wander where dystopia and tenderness meet: among broken systems, people who still reach for each other, and truths we’d rather not face. He writes less about machines than about the quiet ways they shape our hearts, failures, and longings. With roots in aerospace engineering and a lifelong love of science fiction, his work leans toward the human more than the technical. This anthology is offered simply: as a warning, as a gesture of care, and as a reminder for anyone who still notices.

Reviews

[Justin Berman · Rating 5 out of 5]

The third collection of mine centered on science fiction in our solar system. I researched quite a bit for this: from the possible presence of diamonds on mercury to low gravity mining on asteroids to exploration beyond our solar system. It was a fun journey and I hope you enjoy it too.
