Sinopsis

Welcome to Black Cat Weekly #52.
 
This week, our acquiring editors have outdone themselves—Michael Bracken has an original story by William Burton McCormick, “House of Tigers,” which was a Black Orchid Novella Award finalist. Though it didn’t win, it’s a great story. (Competition is fierce for this particular award, since it judged by Linda Landrigan, editor of Alfred Hitchcock’s Mystery Magazine. I won the first Black Orchid for my story “Horse Pit,” and I haven’t dared enter since—I try to read all the winners, and they keep getting better and better. These days I probably wouldn’t stand a chance!) Barb Goffman also has an original, “It’s Not Tennis” by Shannon Taft, another good one. And Cynthia Ward has selected the modern classic “Whiter Teeth, Fresher Breath” by Tom Marcinko, which proves aliens do have it all. Even better oral hygiene!
 
Plus we have a mystery novel by David Goodis (author of Dark Passage and Shoot the Piano Player), a space opera by E.E. “Doc” Smith, and science fiction from Arthur Leo Zagat and Stephen Marlowe! Here’s the complete lineup:

    FIRST CAME A-WAR, NEXT CAME B-WAR, THEN CAME C-WAR....WELCOME TO G-WAR ... GOOGLE WARDavid Alexander has penned what may be the ultimate technothriller, a groundbreaking new vision sure to set the trend for years to come. Alexander may be the first to credibly outline how, why and when a crippling blow to cyberspace could be dealt by hybrid forces with destructive cascading impact on the nation and the world in an unprecedented act of war.In page after page of this startling, revolutionary technothriller, Alexander makes bold proclamations that while portrayed as fiction, may be more than that."Always the consummate prose stylist, David Alexander also speaks tech talk like no other. What's more, the tech specs are undoubtedly real, including those that pertain to ostensibly stolen or covertly obtained Russian and Chinese weapons that have been reverse-engineered by [US military technology development agency] DARPA. Alexander's security clearance is probably higher than the president's, and his knowledge of military systems better than any three members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff," said New York Newsday of David Alexander's blockbuster thriller, GOOGLE WAR.As with other great and era-defining novels, this one too has a message; in fact several messages, accessible on many parallel and overlapping levels of meaning. Alexander sounds a warning about the threat posed by AI, artificial intelligence, and humanity's dependence on machines to do its thinking, acting and fighting...
