Holiday in Hot Zone 16
March 25, 2011 2 Comments
I came up with this story after reading a newspaper article on poverty tourism. I was intrigued by the idea that people would pay to travel to third-world countries and sightsee among the less fortunate. Then I thought, what would war tourism be like? I wrote “Holiday in Hot Zone 16” to answer this question.
The story was originally published at helixsf.com. An io9.com reviewer described it as “a brutal satire”: http://io9.com/#!376226/war-tourism-in-a-flying-bus It’s now a free download at https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/205642 .
Note: It’s war. It’s bloody. It’s graphic. I warned you.
