The wacky crew at Raconteur Press just published Your Honor, I Can Explain, a court room drama anthology. The stories aren’t all science fiction, but I’m looking forward to reading them even so. I’m open-minded about such things. Also, they promise to be whimsical.
One of those stories is mine! I’m feeling pretty honored to be included.
The story’s called “Took Their Wages,” and features space lawyers Calvin Tondini and Sara Seastrom from Mercenary Calling (which you do not need to have read to enjoy this story). In this story, they represent the crew of a starship in a wage dispute.
The question presented: do you pay the crew based on the time that passed on Earth during their faster-than-light travel, or do you pay them based on the shorter subjective time they experienced personally?
Sometimes you need a space lawyer to identify this kind of timely question.
Check it out!
