 AntipodeanSF goes e-pub, folks. I'd like to offer my sincere thanks to the talented contributor (and narrator) Mark Webb for creating the e-reader version. You'll find links to that file (and the previous issue) here at the website, and also at the download site for the AntiSF Radio Show.
Go forth, download, and read.

The aliens beamed aboard every nation's head of state: kings, queens, presidents, prime ministers and chairpersons.
None of the invited heads around the alien conference table spoke.
"What is wrong with them," a confused alien asked?

ADAM ROBERTS: THE DRAGON WITH THE GIRL TATTOO, GOLLANCZ, LONDON, 2010
 "Never laugh at live dragons..." the Antique Ape Saga tells us. An excellent policy to follow, but one which in no way prevented the species in question being flamed to extinction by said dragons.
Although nicely imagined, and containing some wonderful descriptive passages, "... fanta coloured eyes bright and fizzy with cunning...," this rather clumsy reprise of Stieg Larsson's blockbusting crime novel, "The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo," is not one of the author's better efforts. Despite being three times nominated for the Arthur C Clarke Award, plus having a number of critical essays, novellas, short stories, and novels to his credit, Roberts' attempt at parody pancakes this time around.

Radio Show Needs Narrators |

|
 The AntiSF Radio Show needs narrators for all of those stories that the authors don't want to read, so if you're interested in spinning short yarns that will be broadcast worldwide and on community radio here in Australia please click here to contact the editor, Nuke.
It's not difficult, and most computers are capable audio recorders. You can use "Audacity" free audio recording software on Windows or Linux. Most Apple Mac computers come with the excellent "Garage Band" recording software, and have a reasonable inbuilt microphone.
