Analog Science Fiction and Fact - July/August 2014

En este asunto

This month, our double issue kicks off with an extra-length “Journeyman” tale that follows immediately on the heels of the one in this very issue. In “The Journeyman: Against the Green,” Teodorq and his companion Sammi find their current lifestyle under threat, but might that
threat also put them one step closer to fulfilling their oath to find the star men?

Then “Journeyman” author Michael F. Flynn doffs his “Science fiction writer” hat and dons one that boldly says “Statistician!” on the brim, when he brings us a larger-than-usual fact article about a subject relevant to every other fact article, “Spanking Bad Data Won’t Make Them Behave.”

In the rest of the issue: someone is hunting cyber-urchins in Juliette Wade’s “Mind Locker”; Bill Johnson’s “Code Blue Love” brings new meaning to the term “interior monolog”; a journalist is pressed to solve an unusual murder mystery in “Who Killed Bonnie’s Brain?” by Dan Hatch; Paula S. Jordan lets us get up close and personal with an alien in “Voorh”; and Rajnar Vajra brings us a modern throwback to the Golden Age with “The Triple Sun.”

We even manage to fit in a special feature on foreshadowing by Richard A. Lovett, as well as all our usual excellent columns, and plenty of short stories by exciting newcomers to Analog like Timons Esaias’s “Sadness”; James K. Isaac’s “Valued Employee”; R. Garrett Wilson’s “Journeyer”; Eric Choi’s “Crimson Sky”; Andrew Reid’s “The Half-Toe Bar”; and Alvaro Zinos-Amaro’s “Hot and Cold.” See you next time!
