Gregory Norman Bossert. Twelve and Tag. (Asimovs March 2015)

May 4, 2015May 4, 2015 Mark Watson 0 Comments Gregory Norman Bossert.

Clever stories within stories from Bossert, who has a crew of miners in orbit around Europa passing some offduty time with two new crew members by a game that involves each member telling two stories, with the others needing to guess which one is true, which is a fiction.

Gregory Norman Bossert. Lost Wax. (Asimovs August 2013)

July 20, 2013 Mark Watson 0 Comments Gregory Norman Bossert.

A delicieuse yeastpunk story from Bossert. It’s inventive and clever, the characters are non-normative, and the ending rounds a great story off nicely.

Gregory Norman Bossert. The Union of Soil and Sky. (Asimovs Apr/May 2010)

May 8, 2010 Mark Watson 0 Comments Gregory Norman Bossert.

A little by-the-numbers with Avataresque good scientist/bad industrialist roles, but the ending gives a flash of something a bit different.
