Long Eyes and Other Stories by Jeff Carlson
4.0
Long Eyes and Other Stories by Jeff Carlson was a book I read in moments. Each story is short, but very intriguing.
The first, Long Eyes, was my favorite. This one followed a single pilot as she descends to the surface of a barely habitable planet to observe and analyze it. However, she is surprised by what she finds there.
Planet of the Sealies is a look into a possible future on our very own planet, where people search garbage dumps for materials that can be recycled. However, you might just find yourself surprised with the revelation of what Sealies are.
And the final story, Pressure centers around a young man that makes a temporary, but difficult life changing decision in his career. The decision affects not just him, but the family he leaves behind for the two years of his contract. However, we learn that maybe the decision wasn't so hard for him after all.
They are short and sweet. I ordered mine via Kindle from Amazon.com for .99 cents. As of this review it's still available for that low price, and I say well worth the purchase. Each short definitely left me wanting more, and that is a good thing.
