The Imaginary Bomb Chapters 1-3

The Imaginary Bomb begins NOW!

I can't really explain the feeling when I heard Warren Bluhm's voice pronounce those words. This story has been sitting in a file in my basement for 18 years, enjoyed by the small handful who read it but not marketed especially well by me. Through the miracles of the Internet and podcasting and a little bit of encouragement from friends, it's finally out in the sunlight. I'm overwhelmed. But enough maudlin stuff. This first edition of the podcast features:

Chapter 1. An unfortunate incident. Cargo spaceship owner Bob Whelan and his co-pilot, Pete Wong, are doing their civic duty after their ship is commandeered for purposes of planetary security to transport an envelope containing ... something ... to Proximi Centauri 3. After an unfortunate, deadly incident, the envelope finds itself in the hands of ... someone else.
Chapter 2. Additional unexpected visitors. As Bob and Pete await a rescue from - oddly enough - a squad from Special Forces, they speculate as to the identity of the "someone else" who intercepted their ship. But nah, it can't be her.
Chapter 3. Intensely awkward moments. The commander of the Special Forces unit and Bob Whelan don't exactly become fast friends. And, of course, it's all because of her.

Tell us what you think, do the voting thing at Podcast Pickle and Podcast Alley, and help us get the word out about imaginary physics. Oh, and if you don't understand the reference to Scott Sigler in Warren's introduction, check this out. Chapters 4-6 should be up by Monday morning, May 22, at the latest. Thanks for checking us out!!!
