23 short stories from the next generation of science fiction authors. LQQK takes pride in focusing on the future of contemporary technology and phenomena, not on tired, Cold War/WW2-era themes like space conquest, nuclear war, and alien invasion.
Discover the bitter end of social networking in "Red Light," an autocomplete auto-da-fé in "My-app," youth subjugation in "Seniorocracy," a fruit-less future in "For a Few Mandarin Oranges," limitless horizons in "On the Metaphysics of Walmart," the comic alchemy of labor unions and search engines in "SEO," a Disney-style escape from suburbia in "EX-LAFF," and just about everything else in "WTF."
LQQK is also proud to include a portion of the first-ever "Spanglish" science fiction novella, "Uprising in Aztlan," a stunningly vivid and original conception by V. Lazaro Zamora.
