Reliquary is an anthology of Science Fiction and Fantasy short stories on the theme of relics. Authors were invited to interpret the term "relic" in whatever way made sense to them, resulting in an exciting and eclectic mix of stories. Some key definition included: Container for storing holy artifacts. Or unholy ones. Small box with hinged lid suitable for hiding demons from the past. Crate, trunk or case. Usually with baggage. The last place you'll ever look. This is the second anthology from the Hourlings, a writing group based in the Washington DC metropolitan area.
"Time is an illusion." --Albert Einstein "There is no difference between Time and any of the three dimensions of Space except that our consciousness moves along it." --H.G. Wells "If time travel is possible, I would go back to 1967, and the birth of my first child, Robert." --Stephen Hawking "In some ways, we are traveling in time now. We just happened to be prisoners of the present in the eternal transition from the past to the future." --Neil deGrasse Tyson This anthology explores the fourth dimension by taking a step past the known into the unknown.
"We discovered there were lies all around us. I would believe those lies again as long as our planet and our people survived." --Solstice 31 Incident Investigation Testimony Transcript: Captain James Worthington, senior surviving member of the Ventura deep space survey ship. Captain James Worthington, Roland Barcus and the crew of the deep space survey ship Ventura have been betrayed and blown out of the orbit of the planet Baytirus in a heinous ambush. As they struggle to survive, the crew discovered they were sacrificed to protect a dark agenda. Now that they've fought their way free of their planet-bound trap, the survivors are ready to go home. Whether Earth wants them back or not. Especially the Scarecrow.
He's a working stiff looking for a good paycheck. When the Ventura and its crew enter orbit for a scheduled planet survey, the ship activates an automated defense system protecting the planet. Although the Ventura is destroyed in the attack, Barcus alone survives the harrowing fall to the remote planet surface. He struggles to remain alive and sane, and to discover why everyone he knew and loved on the Ventura was deliberately murdered. Swinging between despair and fury, Barcus discovers that for every answer he obtains, there are more questions raised. Barcus is assisted by the Emergency Module, Em, his most useful tool. It is an Artificial Intelligence system contained in an all-terrain vehicle specifically designed to help him survive. Barcus soon finds himself in the middle of a planetary genocide of the local native population. He is unable to stand passively by as more people die, even if they are long lost colonists who fear "The Man From Earth" like children fear the monster under their bed. Will Barcus ever find his way home? Will he find out who is responsible? Will his rage just burn this world down? Or will he find his soul in the eyes of a starving, frightened woman?
Nobody knew how it began. Nobody knew how it would end. All they knew was that they had to survive another day. ... and another night.
"Ha sido difícil determinar cuándo fue que se realizaron los primeros disparos de las Guerras de Al.

Ese disparo fue realizado por Elizabeth Cruze". - Peridoto Azul, El Momento Decisivo: La Historia de las Guerras de Al Elizabeth Cruze llegó a la Tierra con un sólo propósito: comprar armas.

Y en poco tiempo notará que está sucediendo más de lo que le han dicho...
