Space Vacation
Everybody likes to take a vacation now and then, and perhaps on the rarer occasion, people like to take an extra-special holiday.
In the more likely case of the wealthy – and less frequently, the extremely lucky – this means a cruise off-world on one of those really fancy star-liners that go from one system to the next, picking up and dropping off glittering and excitedly chattering passengers along the way.
‘Paradise between the planets’, they call it. Most of the time, that’s how it is. But not this time. How could a holiday in space turn into a murder mystery involving vampires? Yes, you read that right. Vampires.
On the last voyage of the Demeter – a deep space star-liner with the Red Star Line, passengers and crew got more than they bargained for. Way more.

A trio of enjoyable sci-fi tales filled with mystery, fun and revelations...
The second entry of Christina Engela's Panic! Horror in Space series takes the reader on a ride of mystery through three tales of the ghostly, vampiric and even cursed objects; all of which are hazards that come with deep space travel.
Captain Stuart Flane returns to face these perilous situations and has developed a rap for finding trouble of such persuasions. He's used to dealing with the macabre and that's what all three of these stories have in common. All of them begin in one place and through the vessel of immersive and readable story telling they end up somewhere completely unexpected.
From poignant to quirky and fun, these stories pretty much cover everything that Engela is known for with a writing style and depth that will draw you in. I particularly enjoyed 'Lange's Legacy' which carried a certain detective vibe while also being full of twists and revelations.
