Where History Meets Fiction by cradle_life

Different stories from different periods about different people from different walks of life, but they all have one thing in common: they are set in the world of the past. The beauty of short stories is they have all the elements of a novel, but they can be read in one sitting. (Also, you don't have to wait days and days until the next update) I update randomly, but every story is complete and can stand on its own. :) The stories range from the 1st to 20th century, so there is something in here for everyone :)

Under the Mango Tree: 101 Tales (2) by Dawnnbooks

Anthology of flash fiction based on a 100 prompts challenge with each story being 500 words or less. ISBN : 978-976-656-428-5 Written in response to a 100 Stories Challenge, UNDER THE MANGO TREE: 101 TALES is a collection of short stories. They range impressively from tributes to fathers to Caribbean Mythology to life on other planets to Vampires and Christmas. Yet somehow the Saint Lucian and at times Caribbean links run insistently through the stories. For example, it helps to know that the 758 number that manifests in so many sneaky ways, is the telephone area code for Saint Lucia. It warms the heart to know that in the future, the Caribbean Federation of Nations becomes a reality, even if it's in a short story. An entertaining read for all ages.

TK Special #7 - Return to the M'Verse: An Ooorah Anthology by Ooorah

Each of the stories featured herein is set within a Universe of the writer's creation, while all being a part of a larger, shared Multiverse. At the Ooorah Mothership, we call this the M'Verse. Writers have free rein to tell the story they want to tell, providing it's sci-fi in nature and no more than 5000 words in length... then it's all good! There are, however, five "rules" to which all created Universes within the shared Multiverse must adhere. Think of them as non-mandatory prompts that weave an invisible, unbreakable web throughout this anthology. But that shouldn't prove too difficult for the writers partaking... It's time to RETURN TO THE M'VERSE.

Nothing to See Here by jdvanhagar

These are short stories, flash and microfictions, most less than 500 words, the longest about 1500 words. Short, funny, and sometimes fun. Sometimes pointed and sometimes pointless. These stories have been described as eclectic, quirky, and sometimes sad. Take a handful to go.

Café at the End of the Internet by GMichaelRapp

Welcome to the Café at the End of the Internet! It's a real swell place, full of odds and ends, intrigue and mundanity. This re-released (and expanded) speculative-fiction anthology will take you from the far edge of the galaxy to the peripheries of the seedier side of the World Wide Web. Each story explores a range of sub-genres, with unique characters who come to life on the page: From an interstellar spy on a backwater planet to a movie rental store guru who hates his job, to a former cop who wears the uniform once more in a post-apocalyptic landscape. The following stories will surely entice and entertain, as this anthology takes readers to futures near and far, all the while exploring fundamental questions concerning what it is to be human and what we do with the often-squandered gifts of intelligence and consciousness. COVER ART (COMMISSIONED): Jeff Brown Graphics FICTION BY: G. Michael Rapp

Tales From A Lonely Planet: A Sci-Fi Anthology by DougWallace1973

Award-winning author James Douglas Wallace brings together ten sci-fi short stories (flash fiction) in a single volume, each an opportunity to escape into a new reality. While the cover may not scream hard sci-fi with spaceships and lasers, it hints at something different, an almost indescribable existential melancholy shared by all of us. Are we alone in the universe? What's out there? Are we ready for it? Worthy of it? These are the questions explored in this volume. You'll find parallel universes, time travel, quantum entanglement, post-apocalyptic desolation, cloning, benevolent aliens, and alien invasions. And hopefully, they will bring a smile to your face as they have for so many other readers.
