And on the twelfth day of ChristmaSFF…

“… my android gave to me
Twelve alternate futures
Eleven starships shooting
Ten slayers slaying
Nine LARPers LARPing
Eight lemmings laughing
Seven heroes hunting
Six planets plotting
Five throwing stars
Four entangled qubits
Three diff’rence engines
Two uploaded humans and
A monolith on a dead moon.”

Hope you’ve enjoyed our festive song – erm, now back to the serious business of book publishing . . . Happy celebrations from Orbit.
