This reminds me of Firefly in some strange ways. The technology and set-up is entirely different but the overlap is this – Westerns in Space.

Colonisation by zombie: The Exodus Towers
The Exodus Towers is the second book in Jason M. Hough’s The Dire Earth Cycle. The first book, The Darwin Elevator, was a good one and I could see why people found some similarities to Firefly. The Dire Earth Cycle isn’t a space western but it’s a science fiction, set in the near future, after […]

A short film set in the future by Simon Russell. Dysco is a world in which there are loads and loads of surveillance state. What’s the result of all those cameras? Neon dubstep, as it turns out. Fancy another? Use this random teleport link and the site will pick a new video for you.
