DEATH, HUBRIS, AND THE UNFATHOMABLE DREAD OF OUTER SPACE. Welcome to the twisted worlds of Bloody Colony.
We reach out from the solar system into the distant promise of new worlds. While humanity might unlock the science to journey to new worlds, the universe is not so easily tamed. Book 3 contains seven stories of murderous deception, shattered skulls, and vicious beasts.
In "Exploding Head Syndrome" a mysterious contagion rapidly spreads throughout Cordelia Outpost, causing people's heads to explode without warning.
Meanwhile, far from the front line of the war, Styx Station, also known as "The Short End", slumbers in obscurity, until an administrator from Central Commissioning pays a surprise visit. Later, life on Styx returns to a familiar mundanity in "The Ins and Outs", and concerns over another visit subside, but tempting fate is seemingly unavoidable.
On distant planet Gehenna, colonist Doreen Huckerby befriends a creature others consider vermin, but when the true "The Green-Eyed Monster" emerges, Doreen takes matters into her own hands.
When alien invaders threaten to destroy Gehenna colony in "Anti-Sceptic", only Reginald McTavish can save his fellow colonists from certain doom. The conclusion of the devastating attack leaves "Claude" to fend for himself, but his journey to a new home is far from easy.
The most dangerous game is still to come. In "Flowers of Cardinal and Violet" billionaire trophy hunter Anderson Fairchild sets his sights on the mythical and lethal beasts of Gehenna colony, but will he survive the ultimate hunt to the death?
