Edgar Allan Poe’s death remains as mysterious as his poetry and short stories. Theories about the cause of the inventor of the American detective story’s demise range from alcohol poisoning to a kidnapping and drugging. Denying The Stylus is a novella written by Brian D. Campbell that explores the mystery in greater detail. In Denying The Stylus, a new perspective is suggested by a patient currently residing in America’s oldest psychiatric hospital. Tristan Weare, who claims to have discovered a method to travel through time, says his maiden voyage to the past was supposed to be a harmless test mission to meet his favorite author. But the tragic results of the first few jumps to the past prove to be more than Tristan can bear. Denying The Stylus, narrated by Tristan Weare, centers around a series of interviews with Ethan Alstead—a reporter from Temporal Magazine. As the interview is about to conclude, with little evidence to corroborate Tristan’s story, a mysterious package arrives from the past and changes everything the young reporter believed about the tale he’s been told.

If humanity was forced to decide between doing what is easy to save ONLY the current generation versus doing what is extremely difficult to save future generations, which path would it chose? The answer may seem simple, but it becomes far more complicated when your own survival is in doubt.

In The Silver Rain, we follow Lieutenant Conor Rinn's narration to just beyond the late twenty-first century, when a comet was spotted speeding toward Earth. While scientists were able to employ a previously unproven technology called asteroid laser ablation to prevent a planet-destroying direct hit, silver and lead dust from the exploding comet gathered in the atmosphere and rained down over the entire northern hemisphere.

The Silver Rain caused complete crop failure in the northern half of the planet, and those living in the developed regions of the world scrambled to obtain as many of the resources in the south as they could. When it's later discovered that the ominous silver rain is slowly spreading to the south, agreements to share resources fail and the world is plunged into a desperate struggle for survival.
