Sinossi

The Dial is the first in a two part collection of new science fiction short stories by R. W. Warwick. This 10 story collection includes 'Pemberton’s Dial'. A jaded science fiction writer has an existential crisis when his latest work is plagiarised by a dark political force. The collection also includes: 'Whatever Happened to Pangaea?' This story examines a young man’s fragile grip on reality, when his world is revealed to him as a construct of his imagination. 'Let the Cold Winds Blow' tells the fury of a mother who has lost her son in a senseless intergalactic war. 'It Were Aliens' describes a prisoner’s struggle with mankind’s harsh new reality when its future is placed in his hands. 'Beyond Scope' is a first contact tale of caution reminiscent of the pulp science fiction of the 1950s. 'The Far Side of Eternity' reveals a glimpse of our distant future, and the outlandish consequences of nuclear energy. The Dial is a provocative look at the future of humanity, and the dangerous paths we might take.
