The year is 9998, and humans have finally freed themselves from the constant harassment of otherworldly destroyers, invaders, and probers. The parting is sweet but short, as one small mistake leads to Earth Three's biggest Situation yet! There, in the lonely emptiness of space, where no one can hear you scream, let alone parody, a melting pot of Earth Three's bravest citizens embark on a mission to meet, greet, and defeat the last remaining alien threat. But as fate and the author would have it, what they discover is not part of their mission plan. "Extreme C-Sections!" tells their story, a few others, plus aliens, robots, hovercars, and lots and lots of pretty lasers.
The year was 9998 A.D., and it was the Future…
However, it was not one of those watered-down Futures, where society traded in its violence, guns, and curse words for kimonos, Brady Bunch attitudes, and fast food cuisine. It was also not one of those post-apocalyptic Futures, where it is more the Past than the Future, and people ride horses, live in cabins, and have trouble with simple mail delivery. No, no, this Future was right in the middle of the two extremes (where good Futures should be). The Past had past, and the Present had taken its place. The Future was the Present; it was the Now.
Excerpt
"Because it's the Future, and anything's possible in the Future."
