The Other Gun - Asimov's

It seems the April/May issue of Asimov's is out (which caught me by surprise since it seems a little early). The Other Gun, a story I put together from a plot thread removed from Penny Royal II is the cover story:


You can buy a subscription to Asimov's for your Kindle or order the paper version. Now, if you're interested, here's a taster of The Other Gun.

I now have a VERY good reason to buy an issue of Asimov's!!!
Thank you for all the good stuff so far as well.

What can I say? Weapons Grade Sci-Fi and no messing, can't wait to get back to The Polity, Prador and all that jazz. Awesome.

Thanks guys. After completing this latest Macmillan contract I may well focus for a little while on more shorter works like this.

That was a good one -- lots of Polity references for us Yanks in the know and a particularly cathartic scene of the baddie getting pantsed. And all this was judged by you as not being worthy of Penny Royal.

Not a case of unworthy, just an extra plot thread that was making things too complicated.
