Further Conflicts

Cover art by Andy Bigwood

On a hostile alien world a crack army unit mourns one of their own, little suspecting the horror that awaits them; death stalks the classrooms of Ridgeway school as the Harvesters come to reap at will; a warrior returns home from galactic war and must face his greatest challenge knowing that victory might cost him everything; a missionary doctor harbours an alien fugitive, hiding it from its own people despite the consequences of discovery; an interrogator must break the will of a man he knows can never be swayed; a war artist realises that the murky politics of conflict can be deceptive… All this and more awaits readers within the covers of Further Conflicts

Thirteen tales of human striving, of ingenuity, brilliance, desperate action, conflict, and resolution. Thirteen tales of Science Fiction at its finest.

All stories are original to this collection.
