The Incarceration of Captain Nebula and Other Lost Futures

Dust jacket by Bob Eggleton

In his long and storied career, Mike Resnick has won all of science fiction’s most prestigious awards. He has won the Nebula, the Hugo, and numerous readers awards. He has won the Japanese Hugo, as well as major awards in Spain, France, Poland and Croatia.

The Incarceration of Captain Nebula and Other Stories focuses on Mike’s most recent award-winners and nominees with the exception of heartbreaking “The Last Dog,” Mike’s very first award-winning short story and his multi-award-winning classic “Seven Views of Olduvai Gorge.”

From examinations of life and death to questions of eternity, Mike’s short fiction explores the range of the human experience—even though his characters include dogs, robots and aliens.

This collection has everything to appeal to the most devoted Mike Resnick fan, including a never-before-seen-in-print novella, “Six Blind Men And An Alien.” The story, set in Africa like so many of Mike’s award-winners, is one of his most spectacular works to date.

The Incarceration of Captain Nebula and Other Stories shows why Mike Resnick is one of science fiction’s most treasured writers—and one of its most beloved.
