Download Miniatures: The Very Short Fiction of John Scalzi AudioBook Free
The ex-planet Pluto has a few choice words about being thrown out of the solar system. A listing of alternate histories lets you know all the various ways Hitler has died. A legal professional sues an interplanetary union for dangerous working conditions. And four manufactured intelligences clarify, in increasingly having to worry detail, the way they plan never to destroy mankind. Welcome to Miniatures: The Very Short Fiction of John Scalzi. These four experiences, along with 14 other portions, have one thing in keeping: They're brief, sharp, and the point - knowledge fiction in miniature, with none of them of the experiences longer than 2,300 words. But in that brief space exist whole universes, absurd situations, and the sort of futuristic laughter that propelled Scalzi to a Hugo along with his novel Redshirts. Not to mention yogurt taking over the earth (as it would). Spanning the years from 1991 to 2016, this collection is 25 % hundred years of Scalzi at his briefest and best and features four never-before-published experiences exclusive to the collection: "Morning Announcements at the Lucas Interspecies School for Stressed Youth", "Your Smart Gadgets DISCUSS You Behind Your Back again", "Important Getaways on Gronghu", and "The AI Are Absolutely Favorably Certainly Not Here to get rid of Mankind, Honest". John Scalzi is the New York Times best-selling writer of Old Man's War, Lock In, and Redshirts, among others. His work has received the Hugo and Locus Accolades and been nominated for the Nebula and Campbell Accolades. He lives in Ohio and online. He relishes pie. Full ensemble of narrators includes Oliver Wyman, Dina Pearlman, and Allyson Johnson.
