The Hub Fractures
Rashid Iqbal The priest died on a Tuesday. Rashid Iqbal heard the news from his son Tariq, who had heard it from the man who delivered the milk to the presbytery on Roman Road, and by the time Rashid closed the shop for lunch the news was all over Bethnal Green. Father Michael Connelly, sixty-eight years old, found on the floor of the sacristy by the housekeeper at ten in the morning, the...

The Symphony of the Last Light
Vienna in the winter of 1890 was a city of ghosts and gold. Sebastian lived in a small apartment that smelled of old paper and beeswax, his walls covered in musical scores that looked like the frantic scribblings of a madman. Sebastian was a pianist of unmatched brilliance, but he was a man running out of time. A rare blood disease was slowly turning his muscles to stone. He could feel the...

The-Glass-Algorithm
The field looked wrong. That was Marcus Webb's first thought, and in his experience, his first thoughts about fields were usually right. He was sitting at his workstation in the Ascension Data Centre, forty floors above the neon-drenched streets of Neo-Shanghai Sector 4, auditing another batch of consciousness uploads for the Cloud Paradise programme. The work was straightforward: verify data...

The Melting Point of Tobias Ashworth
The telegram arrived at seven-thirty in the morning, delivered by a boy whose bare feet left wet prints on the marble floor of the vestibule. Tobias Ashworth did not open it. He placed it on the silver tray beside the morning paper and the cold toast, and he poured himself a third cup of coffee, and he let the telegram sit. He had been letting things sit for thirty-four years. Ledgers. Letters....

The bayou does not forgive. It does not forget. It simply waits, patient as peat and hungry as the water itself, for men to make their bargains and pay their debts.
Jedediah Thibodeaux arrived in the Louisiana bayou on a Tuesday in June, 1927, with nothing but a suitcase and a name that had gotten him in trouble in New Orleans. He was twenty-seven, which in the bayou made him feel like an old man. He had seen too much, done too much, and survived too much. The city had taken his reputation and most of his savings, and it had left something in his chest...

Josiah Beauregard found the body.
He was a man of forty-two, built like his father before him — broad-shouldered, dark-haired, with a face that had been carved by sun and wind and the slow erosion of disappointment. He stood over his son's body and did not move for a long time. The cypress trees stood around them like sentinels, their Spanish moss hanging like the rags of ghosts. The swamp water lapped at the edges of the...

THE IRON CURRENTS
The briefing room smelled of stale coffee and stale ambition. Captain Jack Moran sat in the third row of folding chairs, his navy uniform pressed to crisp military standards that he knew no one else in the room was even trying to meet. At thirty-four, Jack was young for a captain but old enough to have learned that youth in the military meant two things: you were useful, and you were...

The Chocolate Constitution
The penthouse of the Azure Tower was a masterpiece of glass and steel, floating sixty stories above a New York City that had ceased to function. For the twelve survivors trapped in the luxury suite, the world had shrunk to three thousand square feet of Italian marble and a very limited supply of gourmet snacks. Marcus, a former hedge fund manager, had taken charge within the first forty-eight...

Both States at Once
Setup: The Station at the End of the Observable World The Isfjord Permafrost Monitoring Station occupied a cluster of prefabricated buildings on a gravel pad eight miles southeast of Utqiaġvik, formerly Barrow, on the northern coast of Alaska where the Chukchi Sea and the Beaufort Sea met in a gray confluence of ice and uncertainty. The station was funded by a consortium of six universities,...

The Clockwork Heart (Silkpunk)
The city of Xylos was a marvel of bamboo and brass, a sprawling metropolis of floating pagodas and intricate gear-systems that hummed with a constant, rhythmic vibration. In Xylos, status was measured not by gold, but by the complexity of one's internal augmentations. The elite possessed "Spirit-Gears" that could calculate a thousand possibilities in a heartbeat, while the laborers were mere...

The Valedictorian of Jazz
The Valedictorian of Jazz Lily Marsh arrived in Connecticut in September 1922 with one suitcase, three dresses, and the kind of intelligence that makes people in positions of power either admire you or eliminate you, usually within the same conversation. She had been born in Pleasant Grove, Illinois—a town that existed on exactly one street and one railroad track and a post office that opened...

THE DRY STATIC
ACT I: THE BOOT (20%) The boot was a left foot. Size nine. Leather, cracked at the ankle, the toe scuffed from walking over things that weren't pavement. Billy found it on Day 1, in the dust in front of a building that used to be a shop. He picked it up, turned it over in his hands, put it in his pack. He didn't know why. It was just a boot. But it was a boot with a story, and Billy liked...
