Terminus Loop - Science Fiction

Harvey Stanbrough

Sinopse

The basis of life as we know it is carbon.  
Suppose the nucleus of every carbon atom is a sun. Suppose one electron "planet" swirling around that nucleus supports life. 
And suppose a group of scientists theorize that, like space, time is a maleable factor in the universe. And that even the term "universe" depends strictly on the vantage point.  
In the future on Earth, with Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle disproven and set aside, the way is clear to test the Theorum of Interspatial Travel Through Miniaturization and Recovery (ITTMAR).  
Due to a simple mathematical error, the first trip ends in tragedy. But now, years later, Adam Stanton is ready to pick up where the first Traveler left off.  
The console in the Travel Lab is set for a round trip of only 15 minutes. During that 15 minutes, Adam Stanton will spend 3 years on a sub-atomic planet.  One second on Earth equals 1.2 days on Tremer. Five minutes equals a year. He will study the flora, the fauna, the geology and the people. And he will be retrieved.  
The Guide's calculations are precise, so the trip should be routine.  
But it isn't. It's far from routine.

BLADE & BASTARD: Wireframe...

Kumo Kagyu

Scorch marks blacken the wireframe dungeon, and the smell of burnt meat hangs in the air. Iarumas’s party stumbles upon a corpse, more charcoal than flesh, and Raraja insists on dragging it out. Murmur—Chant—Pray—Invoke. A large-framed girl named Berkanan gulps the fresh air of her second chance at life. Her confidence is low and her skills as a fledgling mage are inadequate, but despite all that, she has a serious goal—kill the red dragon that burned her party alive. This dragon, an interloper from the lower levels of the dungeon, has become so notorious that even the most seasoned parties refuse to engage. Even so, Garbage and Raraja agree to aid Berkanan, and Iarumas lends his support. The chances of failure are high, but in the dungeon, immolation is not a permanent end...as long as someone is willing to pay. Can Iarumas’s party douse the flames of the dragon, or will they all succumb to a menacing red death?
