The Trap

Non-Erotic

Coypright 2009 by madengineer3 * America is facing its most dangerous problem since the Revolutionary War. This is not hyperbole. Our way of life, up until the twentieth century, was based upon initiative, hard work, creativity, and individual freedom. (Yes, I know about the gross injustice of slavery. I am leaving that out of the discussion.) As one who...

Loving Wives

We were in Japan staying at her family home. It was afternoon and her mother and cousins were preparing a meal. Our help was not needed, we'd been told- we'd been in the way- and Akemi and I repaired to the bedroom to prepare our stuff. We had either just arrived or were leaving the next day, anyway needed to organize our luggage, such as it was. Not a big j...

Amber Stahl had covered a lot of speeches in Washington over the years, but had never seen or heard anything even remotely like the lambasting Gwen had just delivered to Congress. She struggled to find the appropriate words to do justice to the situation as the cameras switched from the Capitol Building back to the studio. The red light suddenly lit up and A...

"East is East, and West is West, and never the twain shall meet," or so wrote the illustrious Rudyard Kipling in his 'Ballad of East and West.' With all due respect to Kipling, however, the two have indeed met, and have been dancing a complicated exchange of goods, ideas and even people for many centuries now. And this cultural exchange applies to almost all...

"I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States." Those gathered in the great room in Valhalla remained silent as they absorbed the full impact of the presidential oath. President Crawford had died within two da...

XCII War Alex 2036 Alex was now possessed of an opinion he once believed that he'd never hold. And that somewhat dispiriting opinion was that those women whose company he most enjoyed were those he could never rate as his social equals. A woman like the new Chief Executive Officer, for example, was a real balls-breaker whose greatest talent was to keep Alex...

Irkutsk Ch. 18

Loving Wives

I looked at the category "Loving Wives", and wondered. I feel sure this was intended to be stories of the love of one wife per story, and the plural "wives" was because there were many stories in the category. However, this is one chapter about several loving "wives". In the most pedantic sense therefore this is fits the "Loving Wives" category. And in any c...

Life as a New Hire Ch. 37

Sci-Fi & Fantasy

This story plays fast and loose with Ancient History and Linguistics; be warned. There is something worse than waking up and not knowing where you are: you could wake up and not know who you are. Editing magic performed by KJ24 and Shyqash, plus contributions by the regular gang of brigands and neer-do-wells. There is a bit of mangling of the Iliad going...

An Apologia

Reviews & Essays

As some of these stories seem not to fit with people's expectations, and thus upset some readers, I thought I would write this so that those who wish to can get an idea of the landscape of the stories before venturing in. TL:DR These stories are fantasies, but they are not genre fantasies; I try to write them so that, with some suspension of disbelief, the...
