The Vintage Egg
by A.C. Flory
Available from Amazon.
The book takes its name from the first story in a collection of six, science fiction stories set at the end of the 21st century.
The first story, The Vintage Egg, is about a ruined sand racer, and one man’s dream of restoring it. The last story, The Egg Run, is about that man’s grandson, Tim. Tim has shared his grandfather’s dream since childhood, and now the dream is about to become reality. But what will he do when the one, great challenge of his life is over?
The Gamer and Brehak are two stories about full immersion online gaming, and the need to retain a sense of self.
The To-Do List is about family, and robots. The Christmas Roast is about family, and synthetic life chickens called SL’ick. In a world where traditional forms of meat are hideously expensive, owning your own SL’ick is a privilege. Eating them can be tricky though, especially when one of your children thinks of them as pets.
