Reddit mentions of Lando Cruz and the Coup Conspiracy

Thanks for the questions!

Under the Heel of the Aether Imperium by J.P. Medved ( /u/aducknamedjoe ) is definitely uplifting. My Doubleplusunhate might be, too, a little.

This anthology is more about defiance and fighting hard battles than about feel-good tho if you enjoy winning, there is a lot of that in here.

As to suggesting other scifi that is uplifting, I'm stumped. I frankly found Atlas Shrugged and The Fountainhead to be uplifting but I know others do not.

I'm not sure why they stopped making libertarian science fiction anthologies. There are definitely people writing libertarian sci-fi tho, like Vernor Vinge, Michael Z. Williamson, Sarah Hoyt and the authors of this anthology.

I was feeling really empowered after I published my first novel, Lando Cruz and the Coup Conspiracy (agorist dystopian thriller) and I was recently connected with some of my fellow authors, so I proposed this idea and the drafts started coming in.

I lost faith a few times but kept on pushing. L. Neil Smith was going to join us but then fell ill. Several stories came in last-minute when I thought we wouldn't have enough to do a proper anthology, and then step by step it has finally happened. We worked on this for about 4-5 months I think.

Thanks again for your questions! -- George Donnelly
