Rediscover the earliest works of bestselling science fiction author Ron Collins in They Came Back, a captivating collection of newly unearthed stories, each originally published in the pages of Radius, one of the first digital magazines to ever exist.
“The Spearhead” – In a world of galactic intrigue, what does it mean to be a patriot?
“Night School” – High schools are futuristic combat zones, the students soldiers. Prestige is only a raid away.

That’s not all! Step through time to encounter “The Train Robbery,” a western heist adventure born in Collins’s school days. With the wisdom of experience and advice from former teachers, Collins reimagines this lost gem to delightful effect in “The Hero.”
