Description

This collection of sci-fi stories features brainy young heroines who use their smarts to save the day. Girls who fix robots and construct superhero suits, hack interstellar corporations and build virtual reality platforms. Who experiment with alien chemicals and tinker with time machines. Who defy expectations and tap into their know-how—in the depths of space, or the bounds of dystopia, or the not-too-distant future—to solve despicable crimes, talk to extraterrestrials, and take down powerful villains. All revenues from sales of this anthology will be donated a scholarship fund through the Society of Women Engineers. Let’s show the world that girls, too, can be tomorrow’s inventors, programmers, scientists, and more.STORIES BY: Martin Berman-Gorvine, Paige Daniels, George Ebey, Mary Fan, Kimberly G.

I ached to write a review after each of this book's fresh and novel stories. But I stomped on the urge 'cause I itched to witness whether the story that followed would bear out my sense that the next always bested the last. And it did, every time, though I'm positive that would've happened regardless of the order read.These stories amazed me, one after another, with how much world-building, character development, and human experience the authors could cram into such small parcels of parchment*, on top of the well-plotted tales of their young heroes' brave exploits; young women bright of intellect and spirit. And, though each and every tale brought the hero's quest to a satisfying conclusion, each left me hungry to witness her next move. I'll be on the lookout. In the meantime, I'll have no problem reading them all over again.*Okay, I read it on Kindle, but parchment's what arced from my fingertips, and I've never been good at measuring cyber-real-estate.
