description: PULSE is an exciting collection of science fiction stories which explore the concept of what-if. These stories range from who really rules the world to the universal love of coffee. Stories about artificial intelligence dragons bots and space travel from the fertile mind of Frank Carey. In MAELSTROM the dust wall of Hansons Maelstrom swirls as it has since before man arrived on this rock and some think it will do so long after we leave. As if confined in some huge terrarium the dust stops at Forgotten Pass never moving past. The Maelstrom is an enigma wrapped in a blanket of churning dirt. It was a simple job. Percy and Anna were supposed to take Dr. Stella Pentecost into the Maelstrom to investigate a mysterious signal coming from Deep inside. Simple. Nothing is ever simple on the planet Meltor. Between dragons and brontos it was going to be a very long day. STARSA Moheet of the Quassan Hegemony loves coffee perhaps a little too much. Seth Marsden and Olive Pratt two typical professional thirty-somethings trying to balance their careers with their relationship find themselves in the middle of a ZOMBOT outbreak. Can the two embattled lovers along with their team of genius warrior-engineers stop the ZomBots from taking over the world while patching up their tumultuous relationship before it's too late?
