The week of Akasa-Puspa

Yesterday began in silence The rest is publishing "Hex", a short novel by Juan Miguel Aguilera and Javier Redal that develops in the setting of Akasa-Puspa, a globular cluster where humans have managed to survive and develop a civilization (more or less) as they compete and collaborate with other species.

For the usual science fiction goes without saying that Akasa-Puspa is the most ambitious scenario, by far, the Spanish CF. It consists so far of the novels in the Eternal Worlds and Worlds and demons. Just as the story "Ari, the stupid" and this short novel. True, there was another short story again, "In an unfathomable void, but Juan Miguel has taken some of their ideas, incidents and situations to Worlds and demons and believes that" In a bottomless void "was the first attempt, missed entirely , of close to certain concepts.

"Haunting" is another story. It was originally published in an anthology of visions and since then, has known reissue. It is one of the great stories of average length of the duo Aguilera / Redal: full of action with an enviable pace and moments actually achieved. The cofraditas, alien species that appears in the story, are a real find, and are not the only one in this excellent short novel.

As mentioned, the first part appeared yesterday in The rest is silence. The next two (for what you do not have much hope readers) will rise on Wednesday and Friday. Thus, the novella will be completed throughout the week.

Approach around and throw him a look. Worthwhile.

They say a man's eternal future depends on their beliefs. I deny. A conclusion which honestly has arrived through the mind can not be a crime, and the man who says he is not think so. The god who punishes as a crime is merely an infamous tyrant. As for me, a thousand times rather go to my ruin and suffering the torments with the great and courageous thinkers in the world to go to heaven and have the company to a god who condemns their children for an honest belief.
