Catch of the Day

Digital (epub) edition, delivered as a secure download.

Fishing was supposed to be the hard part.

When an alien colony ship arrives in Earth’s orbit, rogue pilot Eedo decides he’s had enough of cryo-stasis and deserts to Western Australia. Unfortunately for Ken, Eedo’s lander comes down right outside his coastal getaway.

Armed with nothing but a carving knife, bad eyesight, and a foot full of broken glass, Ken is about to have the worst night of his life.

A chaotic 4,000-word sci-fi short from the creator of Hal Spacejock.
