What connects these twenty-four stories is an exploration of place. It can be a location nearby like in Boardwalk Oracle where a clanging candy dispensing machine plays matchmaker in a story that flirts with magical realism.

And an old woman with a memory that may hold the key to it all. Richie and Lisa Craine thought they were going to a high school reunion to laugh together about the Homecoming King’s receding hairline and the Homecoming Queen’s aged skin. They felt good about where they’d ended up in life twenty years after graduation. And then along came Fredrick Patterson.

In 1972, the "Surprise" signal was dismissed as cosmic noise. Today, the Orbital Spire station corrected that error. Using a revolutionary quantum data bus, we hyper-compressed a payload and fired it toward the red dwarf at System X−9. We didn’t send greetings; we sent the resilience of a baby tardigrade, encoded in starlight. As the beam raced 12 light-years across the void, we ignored the warnings of potential interstellar hunters. We weren't just shouting into the dark anymore.

No drug-induced, pain-tinged hibernation. Just a deep peaceful sleep. Halfway into our mission of exploration, we stumbled upon a petal ship rising from the plumes of a gas giant’s atmosphere.
