Radio Nowhere — Douglas Smith
Aurora Award Finalist story from a multi-award winning author.
"Doug Smith is, quite simply, the finest short-story writer Canada has ever produced in the science fiction and fantasy genres, and he's also the most prolific. His stories are a treasure trove of riches that will touch your heart while making you think."
-- Robert J. Sawyer, Hugo Award-winning author of Hominids and FlashForward
"A great storyteller with a gifted and individual voice."
-- Charles de Lint
"One of Canada's most original writers of speculative fiction."
-- Library Journal
"Douglas Smith is an extraordinary author whom every lover of quality speculative fiction should read."
-- Fantasy Book Critic
"Smith is definitely an author who deserves to be more widely read."
-- Strange Horizons
DESCRIPTION:
On the anniversary of his wife's death, Liam makes a startling discovery. The particle accelerator experiments that he is conducting for the university are capable of opening a window back in time. Can he tune that window to the night his wife died? Can he actually go back in time to save her?
But what of the strange radio broadcasts he keeps hearing? Broadcasts that warn that changing the past could produce a very dark future for the world--or no future at all.
How much is Liam willing to risk to bring back the only woman he ever loved?
REVIEWS:
"My favorite in the book. It's a touching story, but a little creepy too."
â€"Goodreads reviews
"Smith paints his worlds so well that you are transported within a paragraph or two and remain in transit until the story ends."
-- Broken Pencil, The Magazine of Zine Culture and the Independent Arts
