From the Edge — Richard Alan Dickson

Good science fiction lives at the edge of the boundary, pushing the limits to see what might be on the other side. But not all boundaries exist at the edge of the universe. Some of the strongest live much closer to home.

This collection of five short stories watches our heroes as they ride that edge, testing the limits and then taking just that one extra step beyond. The stories include:

A Birthday Surprise
No Guts, No Glory
The Crimson Teardrop
The Eidolon Offramp
Bull's-eye Red
