The lichens are growing, the six-winged bat-things are chirping, and much to his own surprise, Mickey Barnes is still alive--that last part thanks almost entirely to the fact that Commander Marshall believes that the colony's creeper neighbors are holding an antimatter bomb, and that Mickey is the only one who's keeping them from using it. Mickey's just another colonist now. Instead of cleaning out the reactor core, he spends his time these days cleaning out the rabbit hutches. It's not a bad life. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIt's not going to last. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIt may be sunny now, but winter is coming. The antimatter that fuels the colony is running low, and Marshall wants his bomb back. If Mickey agrees to retrieve it, he'll be giving up the only thing that's kept his head off of the chopping block. If he refuses, he might doom the entire colony. Meanwhile, the creepers have their own worries, and they're not going to surrender the bomb without getting something in return. Once again, Mickey finds the fate of two species resting in his hands. If something goes wrong this time, though, he won't be coming back.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEDWARD ASHTON is the author of the novels \u003ci\u003eThree Days in April, \u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe End of Ordinary, and Mickey7, \u003c\/i\u003eas well as of short stories which have appeared in venues ranging from the newsletter of an Italian sausage company to \u003ci\u003eEscape Pod, Analog, \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eFireside Fiction. \u003c\/i\u003eHe lives in upstate New York in a cabin in the woods (not \u003ci\u003ethat \u003c\/i\u003ecabin in the woods) with his wife, a variable number of daughters, and an adorably mopey dog named Max.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 320\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.79 x 8.35 x 5.43 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 13, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52003358048557,"sku":"9781250322012","price":20.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/3185\/6429\/files\/fbYNRa8myR9781250322012.webp?v=1776675030","url":"https:\/\/ishookbooks.com\/products\/antimatter-blues-a-mickey7-novel-paperback","provider":"iShook Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
