Tevunkrus Histoires

Surprise Punk is not a sub genre per se, but rather a way to describe a certain type of story breaking with traditional tropes. It can be set at any point in history, the future, or a hitherto undiscovered dimension, and Surprise Punk stories will overlap with other sub-genres. Their key element is, surprise-surprise, surprise. From the Neanderthal who invents electricity instead of fire, the scientist who, rather than creating a new soft drink comes up with a formula for faster-than-light travel, or the girl who finds out her math teacher is an alien, everything goes - and more.

The opposite of SolarPunk, LunarPunk brings us the secrets of the night under the light of the moon. Rooted in pagan mysticism and the occult, LunarPunk shows us the darker side of what might have been and of worlds beyond our imagination. Think we're lunatics? You might be right.

The sixth international issue of Tevun-Krus! The time has come for... PEACE.

With MergePunk we return to a TK favourite - first covered in one of our trademarked SmackDown challenges, then appearing in an anthology we co-ran with an Ambassador-run Wattpad profile, MergePunk is all about merging one Punk subgenre with a non-Punk subgenre. Or several of them CatPunk meets First Contact? Time Travel x DreamPunk? AncientPunk and Superhuman SF? The possibilities are endless!

Cli-fi or climate sci-fi centres on the reasons and outcome of climate change here on old Earth as well as potential means to prevent the worst. As such, cli-fi often has a darker tone, but who said that there can't be an upside to it? And of course, climate change can happen on other planets as well - and perhaps even be seen as something good by some? A large new subgenre to explore for the writers of the mothership!

A host of writers and thinkers here at @Ooorah have taken on TeslaPunk SciFi! Tune in for this month's electrifying, all-original issue of Wattpad's SciFi e-zine: Tevun-Krus!

In this latest @Ooorah anthology, we team up with Wattpad's own @WattpadPunkFiction. Inspired by a round theme from our Wattpad-famous SmackDowns, sci-fi writers will be challenged to craft a kickass story with one cardinal rule: They must first randomly generate and then merge a -Punk sub-genre and a non-Punk sub-genre. From now on we shall call this noble goal... MergePunk!

My collected science fiction short stories written for Tevun Krus, Wattpad's longest running SciFi-ezine

A collaborative story written by Team Decopunk during @Ooorah's "Epic Tales From beautiful Minds" event. Embark on adventures both strange and awe-inspiring with these retro-futurists extraordinaire, weavers of words and worlds bedecked in chrome, and explorers of the glamour of a tomorrow that could have been and may yet come to pass. @WilliamJJackson @LadyAmanita @TheNeutralParty @minusfractions and @Jazzfeathers

TK returns to the scene of the original crime with TK53: Return to First Contact!

Possibly the most ubiquitous of the sci-fi sub-genres in our real life. Who hasn't seen or read or played something that utilized a VR concept? And it's very much in our own lives now, with the Oculus Rift and other VR gadgets.

It's this time of the year again - the Ooorah crew wishes you a Very Merry Cyberpunk Christmas

The forty-seventh issue of Tevun-Krus is dedicated to Galactic Empire! You will join us or die...

Guys, this month, we set up the challenge of taking on the smoky, deceptively clear-cut subgenre of DieselPunk! And may we say, this guy packs a mighty punch! Check out original shorts, reviews, interviews, contests and more--all right here for your reading pleasure!

Have you ever wanted to live ANOTHER LIFE...? A VR addict receives an anonymous letter hooking her on the idea of true love. A starship commander, accused of killing his wife, takes a drug to absolve himself of his sins. An ex-con is forced to kill for sport to keep his captive daughter alive. An astronaut is infected by an alien pathogen that robs her of her identity. An alien race repels human colonization using their unique affinity for mushroom spores. A desert wanderer finds a sentient supercomputer with a plan to restart civilization. And a young man emerges from forty years of cryostasis, cured of a terminal disease, only to find his world has moved on just enough to leave him behind. MIKE MARSBERGEN has written over a hundred stories, nine of which are featured here in ANOTHER LIFE, his first collection of science-fiction stories. Sometimes tragic and romantic, other times violent and disturbing, each of these nine speculative stories will take readers on a mindbending journey to places they won't expect.

And in other, most awesome and excellent news, Ooorah brings you TK Special #4 - elveloy... Evolutionary Anomalies... That's right, another of TK's most prolific contributors, @elveloy has selected her favourite ten submissions to everyone's favourite #longestrunningwattzine and we've assembled them here so what're you lot waiting for? Get yer asses to reading!

Welcome to issue #66(6), Satanic SF. It's like Theological SF, but specifically about satanism.

First you have CyberPunk, then CyberPunk goes through some spectacular changes in itself and becomes Post-CyberPunk! Wow! Seriously. Post-CyberPunk is a sort of utopian's vision of CyberPunk. Like seeing CyberPunk through the eyes of an optimist with big ideas about how to change the gritty, blood-spattered, computer-mainframe streets, and turn it into a sleek, streamlined society. There's less of an anti-corporate bent, or at least the hackers aren't always the good guys.

Welcome to the very first issue of TEVUN-KRUS Vol. 2! After ten years and 100 issues of Wattpad's #1 e-zine, we've entered a new era for science fiction. Welcome to the New Frontier. Ooorah!

This month, the @Ooorah regulars take on Theological Science Fiction!
