2 Short Stories by Nikki McCormack
Requirements: ePUB reader, 454 kB
Overview: Nikki started writing her first novel at the age of 12, which she still has tucked in a briefcase in her home office. Despite a successful short story publication with Cricket Magazine in 2007, she continued to treat her writing addiction as a hobby until a drop in the economy presented her with an abundance of free time that she used to focus on making it her career. Nikki lives in the magnificent Pacific Northwest with her husband, two horses, two cats, and one slightly crazy dog. She feeds her imagination by sitting on the ocean in her kayak gazing out across the never-ending water or hanging from a rope in a cave, embraced by darkness and the sound of dripping water. She finds peace through practicing iaido or shooting her longbow.
Genre: Science Fiction
Making Monsters
Shai is a girl with nothing in a world run by men. Her parents are gone. She has no lineage to brag about. No future to hope for. Only her brother keeps her safe, but even he isn’t willing to stand up to Kurth, the leader of their little band. Not when it comes to keeping Kurth’s hands of off her and not now, when he should be disputing the older boy’s plans to involve them all in a dangerous heist.
Shai knew the heist would go terribly wrong and, when it does, she is the one to pay the price. Only this time, what promised to be a tragic end brings her together with a woman secretly practicing magic, a craft forbidden to her gender. The encounter will give Shai the strength and freedom she needs to turn the tables on Kurth, but she may have to abandon her humanity in the process.
In Silence Waiting
The New Gobi desert is a dangerous place. The only way to cross with relative safety is in guided caravans using genetically engineered slaves called cynta; creatures designed to sense the dangers of the desert.
