About this ebook
Galactic Reflections: Stories of Time, War, and Transformation is a captivating collection of short stories by Cameron Cooper, a master of speculative fiction. This anthology brings together a diverse array of tales that explore the human condition across time and space. From the solar-punk landscapes of “Winds of Change” to the cosmic origins in “Fetch,” each story offers a unique glimpse into different futures and alternate realities. In “A Room of Her Own,” journey aboard a generation ship where the boundaries of personal freedom and societal expectation blur, while “Resilience” delves into the haunting consequences of war and regeneration.

Galactic Reflections invites readers to explore the delicate balance between hope and despair, love and loss, and the enduring human spirit in the face of unimaginable challenges.
