The Stories
Magic is What You Make It
by Nicole DragonBeck
Brinsley, a young entrepreneur from Teirnan, wants her special shampoo to become an interplanetary hit so her family won't have to worry about money for her mother's medical treatments. Her brother comes up with a daring plan to produce enough of the magical hair care product to answer their wildest dreams, but they'll have to race against time, lack of equipment, and great amphibious dragons to make it to the Worlds' Fair on time.
True Nature
by Ziza Oman
Zakiels and Ikod, the epitome of true outcasts, are no strangers to rejection on their planet of Kekkek. Little do they know the cause for that alienation is about to be the reason that thrusts them both into a thriving universe they didn’t know existed. As Zakiels and Ikod’s world is opened up, they must hold on to hope that the needs from others beyond their planet will finally break their isolated life and offer them new horizons or, better yet, people to get to know.
Gravis
by Dinah Durand
Gravis, a lone-wolf escapee that, technically, doesn't exist, from planet Pierium, wants only to escape his past, but the dangerous and illegal weapons his hijacked ship contains is a constant reminder that might end with him in prison, dead, or worse: back on Pierium. His only option is to sell them all and be rid of them... isn't it?
‘Look Ma, No Pockets’
