Potential - Alone in the Void...

Robert Sheckley

Potential by Robert Sheckley - He was one man, horribly confused, escaping from a destroyed planet, carrying some sort of message which he couldn't recall. But he had tremendous potential for achievement!
Robert Sheckley (1928–2005) was a prolific American science fiction writer renowned for his sharp wit, satirical style, and imaginative storytelling. Emerging as a major voice in the 1950s, Sheckley became a fixture in magazines like Galaxy and Amazing Stories, captivating readers with tales that often blurred the line between absurdity and philosophical insight. His work frequently explored the quirks of human nature, the unpredictability of technology, and the ironic consequences of alien encounters, often through fast-paced plots and cleverly twisted logic.
A master of the short story, Sheckley penned classics such as “The Seventh Victim”, which inspired the 1965 cult film The 10th Victim, and “Watchbird”, a prescient tale about autonomous drones enforcing morality. His ability to satirize bureaucracy, consumerism, and Cold War anxieties drew comparisons to contemporaries like Kurt Vonnegut and Philip K. Dick. Despite often being categorized as humorous or light, his stories packed a philosophical punch, exploring themes of identity, free will, and societal control.
Sheckley also wrote novels, including Mindswap, Dimension of Miracles, and The Status Civilization, which showcased his trademark blend of existential inquiry and surreal comedy. His influence extended beyond literature, inspiring filmmakers, futurists, and generations of speculative writers. Endlessly inventive and sharply perceptive, Robert Sheckley remains one of science fiction’s most original and underappreciated voices.

The Metamorphosis of Bunny Baxter

Barbara Carroll Roberts

Bunny Baxter thinks nothing could be worse than starting seventh grade at a school where she knows no one. But after her first day, she realizes things can actually get much worse.

If Bunny Baxter were an insect, she’d have so many ways to slip through seventh grade unnoticed. But she’s tall instead of tiny, has flaming red Medusa hair instead of camouflage, and she suffers from social anxiety, which makes it hard to be part of a swarm. Worst of all, she’s been redistricted to a new middle school away from her best friend who she could always hide behind when her anxiety got the best of her.

The first day at E.D. Britt Middle School does not go well. Bunny trips on the steps, falls into the cutest boy in the school, and causes a kid domino pile-up. At lunch, she unintentionally causes an uproar in the cafeteria, which lands her and another girl in the principal’s office. Bunny decides there is only one option: to get expelled so she can transfer to the school her best friend attends.

She soon discovers that it isn’t that hard to get in trouble—don’t turn in your homework, walk around the track instead of run in P.E., pretend you deliberately hit someone with a badminton birdie. What isn’t so easy for Bunny is realizing she now has a reputation as a troublemaker. And even more confusing, when it looks like her plan to get expelled might work, she’s no longer sure what to do.

The Metamorphosis of Bunny Baxter is a heartfelt coming-of-age story about an insect-loving girl who is learning to grow into herself, quirks and all.
