The end and other beginnings: stories from the future
(Book)
Inertia — Friends Claire and Matt stopped speaking six months ago. When Matt gets into a car accident and his end looks certain, he requests a visitation, a procedure which allows him and Claire to revisit shared memories and a chance to discover what went wrong.
The Spinners — Bounty hunter Atleigh Kent tracks and kills leeches, a predatory extraterrestrial race which illegally absorbs human host bodies. But death begets all death, and Atleigh is relentless in her search for revenge.
Hearkeners — There is a unique symphony, a slow ode of aches and joy, notes created by each body as if it lives as it dies. These songs are heard by a select few. As Darya makes a difficult decision between her role as a recorder of life songs or death songs, she discovers where the two merge.
Vim and Vigor — Edie uses the Elucidation Protocol, a simulated reality technology which reveals the likely outcomes of difficult decisions, taking her on an exploration of fandom, anxiety, and female friendship.
Armored Ones — Teka has one mission while working undercover with the Storyteller: kill Cyra Noavek. Akos, on the other hand, must prove his wit and mettle in a rite which will likely kill him.
The Transformationist — Otho is a prisoner in jail for a crime he didn't commit. His honest story is all it would take to release him, but he refuses to speak.
