Dreams of the Devoured

Once, long ago, Dued Inclusive hired Nonym to build a machine that could build a world for Nonym's spacefaring people. They succeeded too well, and it showed it's hand: this part-forest, part-machine thing came alive and did what it was truly designed to do: Devour.

Flo, an idealistic college student, and Huey, a self-absorbed high school senior, happened to be doing direct action at the moment it revealed itself.

Now, all four of them dream of escape. Will they? Is it too late? What of the world they unleashed this monstrosity upon, and the galaxy?

Four short stories (secretly five) set in the Island Demeter universe.

For a chapter select, hang around on an ending page for 60s
