Nightmare Or Dream?

SLEEPING BEAUTI by D.B. Green and A.K. Stein is a mix of science fiction, fantasy and horror, and more plausible than the backstory of the Matrix movies.

The coma is an excellent touch. I can't comment any further without risking spoilers, but the description doesn't do SLEEPING BEAUTI justice. I wouldn't call this a retelling at all. Green and Stein have created a very frightening dystopian future.

I recommend this short story to all readers.

As always,
