Space Rats In A Maze

In the dark heart of space, a derelict freighter drifts empty and lifeless. But in the shadows...something waits.

Derelict by Albert Berg is a science fiction short story about a recon mission gone horribly wrong. When a three-man team is dispatched to investigate a huge ship, devoid of all signs of life, the men soon realize they have been given false information.

While the mounting suspense is intriguing, the turn of events is a theme I've seen often in both sci-fi and horror stories. Although the corridor scene is absolutely horrifying, I wish the author had attempted to be more original with the ending.

As always,
