A freebie I picked up at last year's Readercon convention in Quincy MA.
Title: The World Builder
Publisher: Brett James
Date: 2015
Writer: Brett James
Not a comic. This is a prose short story in quarter-sized zine format.
World Builder Barun makes deals to build a city of wonders on a desert planet while his mother sends him urgent messages of an impending deadline. This was a well-written science fiction story, with a good details, especially on future architecture and construction. It has something of a twist ending, which didn't come entirely unexpectedly, as there were hints throughout the story that all was not exactly as it appeared. Still, the ending was well-executed, and the author kept up the nice level of detail that made the story engaging.
This worked well as an introduction to the writing of author Brett James.
Rating: 6.5/10
