The ocean is vast and mostly uncharted. In these nineteen stories, authors imagined some of what might be happening under the surface of the waves. Or in some cases, on dry land when water-dwelling creatures pull themselves out of the ocean into a world of furry and feathered animals that they struggle to relate to. Dance in a cuttlefish rave. Join a shark as she attempts to build an airship. Attend an underwater ball thrown by crab-aliens. Watch the last Asian dragon perform in a whale and dolphin circus. Listen to a ballad sung by lobsters and whelks. Hunt for a killer shark with two waring ocean races under a tense truce. Ride squid with the Hell’s Anglerfish seal gang. But above all, don’t forget to bring a wet suit! Featuring stories by Louis Evans, Allison Thai, Koji A. Dae, Gustavo Bondoni, Nenekiri Bookwyrm, Kary M. Jomb, Huskyteer, Kittara Foxworthy, Daniel Lowd, K.C. Shaw, Willow Croft, Mary E. Lowd, James L. Steele, Su Haddrell, Daniel R. Robichaud, Frances Pauli, Mark Slauter, Jude-Marie Green, and S. Park.

An Ocean Anthology

Shark Week

Their planet was ripped apart from under their feet. When Deka and Kylac wake up, they discover Archeons are dead, and the portals have closed without warning, leaving hundreds of planets without links to other worlds.Rel's destruction touched every planet in the contacted universe. Without the portals, entire civilizations hang in the balance, and Deka and Kylac are the only two who can make spacetime spheres. The raptor and the fox travel from world to world, repairing the damage the disaster caused, preventing civilization from collapsing. Floating islands drifting through the toxic atmosphere of a gas giant-offworlders are stranded there, just barely clinging to life. A planet of raised platforms made of growing rock that elevate the people above the flammable algae on the surface-everything is falling apart, and where are the people? A world of giant insects-researchers have gone missing, and they have been injected with mind-altering venom. A planet of salamanders and birdlike reptiles who relied on portals for food-facing starvation, the reptiles revert to hunting the salamanders.What could have destroyed an entire planet?What could have reached across the light years to kill so many Archeons at the same time?Did anyone else survive?
