Junkyard of Empire

I've recently completed another "reboot," this time of Piper's "Graveyard of Dreams" (which became the first three chapters of ~The Cosmic Computer~). It's posted at Zarthani.net:

I've tried to do a bit of the sort of thing John Cowan has done with "Omnilingual" and that John Scalzi did less well (imho) with ~Little Fuzzy~. I'm eager to hear what others think.

Enjoy,

David

New McGuire anthology

Ceed Publishing has collected several of John J. McGuire's yarns, including a couple of his collaborations with Beam, in a print-on-demand anthology:

The price is a little steep but it's nice to see McGuire's work back in print.

Enjoy,

David

That's what they'll give you [at university]. The tools, which you don't have now, for educating yourself." - Bish Ware (H. Beam Piper), ~Four-Day Planet~
