Synopsis
Seven original stories spanning multiple subgenres, each offering a completely different adventure while sharing one common thread: the limitless possibilities of imagination.
From extraterrestrials behind the vampire legend to a screensaver that turns out to be a living world, Reddout moves easily between wonder and warning — and always returns to the people at the center of the story.
In this study you will explore
- Wereworld — What if the vampire legend actually began with extraterrestrials searching for a new home?
- Mulgroon — A meditation on humanity's long history of exploiting the worlds it inhabits.
- Worker — Imagine discovering that your computer screensaver is another living world.
- Goldilocks and the Six Bears — A playful reimagining of the classic fairy tale.
- Beauty — Reunited after twenty years apart, can true feelings survive time?
- In Harm's Way — Reluctant family obligation becomes something much deeper.
- The Dragon's Keep — Forgotten alliances may hold the key to humanity's future.
