Sci-Fi Short Story Collection -- Volume 3
These five stories range between approximately 350 words and 5,000 words.
The first, The Burglary In The Basement Of God, asks the question: Where does all the old time go when we are done with it? It has to go someplace, right? The hero of this little story not only figures out the answer to that question but comes up with a plan to turn that knowledge to his advantage, because he is a very clever guy.
The second, Exile, deals with the questions of time travel and punishment. Maybe the title should have been, Exile In Time.
In the third, Enough Is Too Much, is just for fun. How much farther can "reality TV" (really unreality TV) go? This very short little story supplies a possible answer.
The fourth story, Chain Gang, explores a future where you don't lock up a criminal's body but, instead, you lock up his/her mind. Sounds neat and clean and humane, doesn't it? Well, maybe not so much.
The fifth story, At the Sound Of The Beep, is another fun very short story. Maybe not really science fiction at all, but since it's only 350 words, you might enjoy it anyway.
Total Length of document is approximately 13,000 words
