I may have overlooked it because the dark and muddy covers have been far from appealing until now. But <em>DMR<\/em> assures that the latest &#8220;Futures That Never Were&#8221; special is worth a look. It&#8217;s a 500-page whopper of an issue (with a new style cover), and two tales are especially noted&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cHawks over Reolis\u201d by H.R. Laurence is definitely a success. Hester Craven is a spunky and resourceful protagonist. She will not be daunted or denied. Great steampunk fun. I would eagerly welcome more stories of her exploits. Finally the story that completely exceeded expectation was the gonzo ride that is \u201cThe Vengeance of the Silvern Hand\u201d by Ethan Sabatella. I do not want to give anything away, but you should really read this story. It is certainly everything I love about pulp stories.
